The overall objective of the ICI project is improved utilisation of geospatial information in spatial planning and management in Zanzibar. The project will improve access to spatial information and enhance collaboration and data sharing between governmental agencies and public participation in environmental and other spatial planning and management processes. These results will be gained by improving the capacity of project partners in Zanzibar to set up, manage and use National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). NSDI will include a technical framework for storing, managing, distributing and using geographic information, as well as legislative instruments and coordination structures for improved data management and sharing models.
