The Study on Strengthening NIA’s Management System
The
objective of the study is to formulate an Improvement
Plan for strengthening of NIA’s management system
aiming at more efficient and effective implementation
and operation of irrigation projects/systems, and
to carry out technology transfer to Philippine counterpart
personnel in the course of the study. In order to
do this, a comprehensive database must first be created
for all the irrigation systems that fall under the
NIA management. This GIS Database will be installed
in selected NIA Regional Offices to help them have
up-to-date information on their areas of jurisdiction.
ArcView GIS Database
The
specifications of the GIS were determined through
discussions with NIA’s personnel and upon the approval
of JICA Headquarters. The GIS maps created for this
study were in the scales of 1:50,000 and 1:4,000.

On
the Scale 1/50,000 |
On
the Scale 1/40,000

| Purpose
|
To
store the basic information on the irrigation
development.
To prepare the basic data for selection of
the priority irrigation projects.
|
To
monitor the activities/ services related to
irrigation service fee (ISF) collection.
To monitor the ISF collection system based
on eac farmer's land area
|
| Target
|
National
Irrigation Projects (NIPs) to be implemented
up to the year 2004 (about 370,000 ha).
Existing National Irrigation Systems (NISs:
about 680,000 ha).
|
About
1,000 ha in a National Irrigation System (NIS).
The target area were determined through discussions
with the NIA competent personnel.
|
| Remarks
|
The
results of the Inventory Survey on the irrigation
facilities will be used as the basic data
to be stored in this GIS. |
The
target site should be selected in consideration
of the connections and relations with the
existing related studies/projects.
