Village Panchayat● Articles 243 to 243O of the Constitution of India.● Local authorities – Quasi judicial powers over their
jurisdiction – Asses and Collect Tax, Cess.● Implementing agency - Developmental projects of it's
own and, of the government.● Role in Environmental protection - KPR Act 3rd
Schedule -Environmental hygiene, awareness, upgradation; Social Forestry.● Biodiversity Management Committee (Biological
Diversity Act - 2002)● Enforcement of building rules, ref. CRZ notification.
OpenStreetMap
● Webmap.● Database containing vector map data.● Freedom
● ODbL – Open Data Commons Open Database License.
● CC-by-SA, Formerly.● Editable as a Wiki.● Repository of GPX tracks.● A community Project.● Steve Coast – July 2004.
Why OpenStreetMap?
● Many of the available maps are not free.● Few of them are free (as beer) but not free (as speech).● Difficulties to get vector data to draw custom maps.● Users can improve OpenStreetMap.● OpenStreetMap can be updated easily.● Commercially available maps may occasionally
contain purposefully added errors.● Almost same spirit as in case of Open Government
Data (OGD) Platform India (data.gov.in)
Why OpenStreetMap?
● Much of the areas in this world remains not mapped
properly until now.
● Can draw maps for innovative uses and needs.
● Free services delivered by corporates could be stopped,
or made paid service – But that usually doesn't occur
with the services delivered by communities.
Koorachundu Village Panchayat● Kozhikode Dist. - Koyilandy Taluk – Balussery Block.
● Villages - Koorachundu, Chakkittapara, Kayanna and
Kanthalad.
● Most of the areas remain unsurveyed.
● Forest - Pervannamuzhi Range, Malabar WLS.
● KSEB – Kuttiyadi Hydroelectric Project (Kakkayam
Dam and reservoir).
● Irrigation – Kuttiyadi Irrigation Project –
Peruvannamuzhi Reservoir.

● Submitted to Dept. of Land Resources, MoRD, GoI
● By LSGD, Government of Kerala
● Availability of GIS layers
● Cadastral map: Available with Information Kerala
Mission(IKM) under the Govt. of Kerala in the
scale 1:5000
Kasturirangan Report
● Report of the High Level Working Group (HLWG)
● G.O.(Rt) No.188/2013/Envt. Dated 21/12/2013.
● Fixation of Ecologically Sensitive Area (ESA) - Field
verification - Constituted Village Panchayat level
verification committee.
● Instructed to Fix ESA and submit report before
13/01/2014.
Map for Verification Committee
“Sevagram” Gramakendram
● Circular No.352008/DA3/2012/LSGD Dated 28/03/2014
● G.O.(Ms) No.112/2014/LSGD Dated 25/06/2014.
● Extension centre of Village Panchayat in each ward.
● Important statistics, Various maps (Political,
Resource, Social, Drainage, Landuse) must be
displayed there for public information.
State Election Commission'shandbook
● “Good governance through legal awareness - Hand
book for People's Representatives and officials at
LSGIs" – 2013 (SEC-K & KILA - Page no: 12, 13).
● Ward delimitation - using Cadastral Map.
● From Information Kerala Mission
● If IKM didn't prepare a cadastral map for a
particular village panchayat, then that should be
prepared with the help of Survey Department.
State Election Commission'sOrder
● Order No. 311/2014/SEC Dated: 18/6/2014
● LSGIs of Kerala have no systematically prepared
base maps useful for administrative, scientific and
academic purposes as an official document.
● Such a map would be useful as a base document for
future delimitation of wards or bifurcation of LSGIs.
The Reality
● Resource Map – NO
● Cadastral Map - NO
● Administration Map – Yes.., We will see that..
Ward Map - Administrative
State Election Commission'sOrder – less scientific.
● To be authentic, map should be prepared by
Department of Survey and Land Records.
● The maps for village panchayats will be in A3 size
and will be in defined scale (municipality: A2 size,
municipal corporation: A1 size).
● Department of Survey and Land Records will prepare
the final map, using AutoCAD.
Village PanchayatSteering Committee
● Resolution no: 2 dated 17/07/2014. - To conduct OpenStreetMap mapping party to map the area.
● Official partnership and Volunteers from Swathanthra Malayalam Computing.
● Field level resource persons from Village panchayat.
● Volunteers from Dr. R.Satheesh Centre for Remote Sensing and GIS- Mahatma Gandhi University, Kottayam and from Wikimedians and one from IT@School project.

Processing
● Followed a Standard ETL Procedure● Extracted the data from OpenStreetMap● Transformed and Loaded in QGIS
● Processed and prepared map with QGIS● Vector → OpenStreetMap → Import topology
form .osm(xml)● Output SpatiaLite DB →Export topology to
SpatiaLite DB in QGIS● Compose in QGIS Map Composer → Exported
as .svg● Finishing works with Inkscape
