Description This publication provides an overview of GIS software and is supplemented with Asian case studies. Participants from Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Sri Lanka had hands-on training in different GIS software and the relevant features of each case study are presented. Data sets on rice-wheat and legumes were assembled in the GIS core and were analysed using various GIS tools. Analysis using 'overlay', 'reclassification' and statistical analysis were major applications. Case studies showed temporal and spatial changes in crop productivity and pests. A few studies attempted thematic mapping for constraints analysis.
