Introduction

• Why a Geographical information system (GIS)?
• Provide a framework for organisation
  communication
• Allows the capture and sharing of knowledge
• Used for better comprehension, representation,
  managing
• Gives a faithful image of the reality

5
GIS concept

• A geographical information system is composed of
  5 elements
• Geographic datasets and data models
• Maps and globes
• Geo-processing models and scripts
• GIS methods and workflows
• Metadata (description of data)
• Geographical data
• Spatial data
• Attributes data

7
GIS software ArcGIS

• ArcCATALOG
• To organize manage all geographic information
• Allows to define and build geo-databases

8
GIS software ArcGIS

• ArcMAP
• Mapping editing tasks
• Map-based query analysis
• Compose maps for printing or publishing

9
GIS software ArcGIS

• Mobile GIS (ArcPad)
• Need to take GIS into the field
• Data collection system
• Geo-referenced data in the field
• Allows the accurate field data collection (GPS
  support)

10
GIS software Application

• Results from the ArcGIS software
• Predefined configuration of ArcPad
• Directive data collection with predefined fields
• Straightforward communication between PDAs and
  Desktop
• ActiveSync transmission of Shapefiles

11
GIS software Application

• Production of geo-referenced maps
• Re-usable geo-referenced maps
• Full geo-database available
• Production / presentation of all results on a map
  background

12
Conclusions

• Eases the on-field flexible work
• Gives a framework for the collected data
• Gives more accuracy and robustness
• Allows post-processing of the database
• Gives a spatial  sense  of the results

13
MADERE

• Model for Analytical Demand Estimation in Rural
  Electrification
• Quantify potential electricity demand
• Quantify the economic benefit
• Based on particular features
• General parameters
• Households equipment rates
• Typical consumption
• Average fuel consumption patterns
• Probabilities of substitutions

14
REPA

• Forecast of extensive variables for
  hierarchically organized entities
• Respects the regression made on basis of
  historical data
• Balance between projections for an entity and
  projections for sub-entities
• Take into account the saturation phenomena
