Late Post!
Last month, 𝗼𝗻 𝟯 𝘁𝗼 𝟰 𝗔𝘂𝗴𝘂𝘀𝘁, G-SIG had the opportunity to work together with the Ministry of Health, the National Malaria Department, with support from Asia Pacific Malaria Elimination Network, to facilitate a Post-Training Support on Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for the National Malaria Department staff.

The training was conducted in the Malaria Department Meeting Room in Lahane, Dili, Timor-Leste. During the two-day session, the G-SIG team refreshed the GIS knowledge that had previously been delivered to the participants and provided hands-on guidance on using QGIS to produce high-quality thematic maps tailored to the needs of the health sector.

Participants carried out practical GIS exercises, particularly using QGIS for thematic map design, shared the challenges they encountered, and developed action plans for integrating QGIS into their daily work—especially for the management and visualization of geospatial data within the malaria program.

On 10 August 2026, the JICA-GCF Project Team conducted a GIS and remote sensing training session for staff of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries and Forestry (MALFF).

The training focused on the use of drones for mapping and forest monitoring, including basic operation and data collection methods.
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) enable the collection, analysis, and visualization of location-based data, supporting evidence-based planning and decision-making.

Drone imagery can provide accurate and up-to-date information on forest cover, land-use changes, and natural resource conditions, including remote areas that are difficult to access through conventional surveys.

By strengthening technical capacity in GIS and drone applications, this activity contributes to more effective forest management, environmental conservation, and sustainable development in Timor-Leste.

Come and meet G - SIG at our Poster Presentation, featuring our Co-Founder and President, Ponciano da Costa de Jesus.

During the presentation, Ponciano will showcase our project: “𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗗𝗶𝗹𝗶 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗪𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗨𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗵𝗶𝗱𝗶 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗲-𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗙𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗸 𝗠𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗪𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀.”

This initiative was implemented in Dili, Timor-Leste, with a particular focus on the communities of Suco Manleuana, Motael, and Kampung Alor, with the generous support of UNDP Timor-Leste.

The project demonstrates how community participation, geospatial technologies, open-source mapping tools, Ushahidi reporting, and drone technology can be integrated to better understand environmental risks and support community-based early warning and disaster resilience initiatives.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to UNDP Timor-Leste for making this initiative possible. We also extend our appreciation to OSGeo and the FOSS4G 2026 Organizing Committee for providing us with the opportunity and support to participate and present our work at this global conference.

🗺️🙌 Update from the 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗠𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗚𝘂𝗿𝘂 program!

This month was an exciting one for our Gurus across Asia-Pacific, as they successfully completed their 𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘀𝘀 𝗠𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 & 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 deployment. 🌿🗺️

Through this deployment, 20 Gurus strengthened their skills in remote seagrass mapping and identification using the HOT Tasking Manager and drone imagery of seagrass beds captured as part of the Monitoring for Seagrass Conservation project in Timor-Leste by our partner, Konservasaun FLORA & FAUNA.

A huge congratulations to all the Gurus! Excited to see them taking their mapping skills beyond buildings and roads – now ready to support emerging mapping needs, including environmental conservation. 🌱

Drop a 🗺️ below if you were part of this deployment or if you’re interested in joining a future one!
