Need of City Sanitation Plan

• Initiated under National Urban Sanitation
  Programme (NUSP)
• Aims to provide/ strengthen Household level
  sanitation facilities and to carry safe disposal
  and treatment of solid and liquid waste
• Active community participation in sanitation
  management process
• As per MoUD, 40 cities in India needs immediate
  remedial measures in sanitation
• Hence every ULB should have updated information
  on sanitation which will become the base for
  developing CSP.

Our experience in CSP

• Under NUSP, we have prepared CSPs for four cities
  in Madhya Pradesh, i.e. Gwalior, Khajuraho,
  Raisen and Astha
• Under CSP our aim was to assess present level of
  sanitation facilities and to suggest a best
  suitable technology for the sanitation management
  in the city
• It will be supported by a comprehensive workable
  plan
• Availability of data in small cities is a great
  challenge.

5
Methodology for using ICT

• Preparation of Base Map on consultative process
• Collection of updated information on various
  components of sanitation through handheld GPS
• Preparation of thematic maps
• Baseline survey for collection of non-spatial
  data
• Integration of spatial and non-spatial data on
  GIS
• Further data analysis and visualization.

6
Components of ICT

• SAMS (Sanitation Amenities and Management
  Systems) - To provide spatial representation of
  the existing situation of the sanitation
  facilities.
• Mapper - For participatory planning within a
  ward.
• Mobile Application - For capturing field based
  sanitation data with location and pictures.

SAMS Key Features

• User friendly web application designed to assist
  activities related to CSP
• Accessible for any body and anywhere with
  internet connection
• Helps in query generation analysis and getting
  different reports
• Spatial representation of relevant information
  which can be visualised by the user
• Cross sectoral analysis
• Data management and Report generation
• Decision making tool for local bodies through
  smart data management
• Main technology used for SAMS is Java.

Mapper

• User friendly desktop based GIS Mapping tool
• Effective tool for community participation - Ward
  level information collection, storing, data
  updating, planning and decision making
• Available in local regional language
• Used for local area mapping through participatory
  planning
• Simplifies data representation updation
  create and modify the data through layers
• Useful tool for Planning and decision making at
  local level.

Mobile application

• Mobile based application tool
• Tool for monitoring of CSP execution
• Useful in updation of current status of services
  from the field
• Upgrade the real time data and useful for OM in
  the sectors like, water supply, Sanitation and
  SWM
• Secure and reliable data transfer
• Enabled with GPRS and GSM technologies
• Report generation as per requirement.

Way Forward

• Helps in effective data collection, management
  and decision making process
• Need to disseminate such technology among the
  community
• Need to develop a generic application of ICT
  tools which will help in data collection,
  management and assessment
• It facilitates participatory planning and
  interaction between service provider and end
  users
• Need to develop an integrated approach to get
  more involvement of stakeholders (service
  provider and user) for sustainable management of
  services.
