The Forest Department of Bangladesh leads actions to improve forest management and conservation, adopting forward thinking, innovative approaches in its management of approximately 1.55 million hectares of land across the country.
In 2015, the Forest Department began a process to establish a National Forest Inventory and Satellite Land Monitoring System for improved forest and natural resource management. The process supports national objectives related to climate change mitigation and provides information in support of the UN-REDD programme aimed at Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+). The process also addresses domestic information needs and supports national policy processes related to forests and the multitude of interconnected human and environmental systems that forests support.
The activities implemented under the Bangladesh Forest Inventory process are collaboration between several national and international institutions and stakeholders. National partners from multiple government departments and agencies assist in providing a nationally coordinated approach to land management. International partners, including the United Stated Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) are supporting the development of technical and financial resources that will assist in institutionalizing the process.
The results will allow the Forest Department to provide regular, updated information about the status of trees and forests for a multitude of purposes including for assessment of role of trees for firewood, medicines, timber, and climate change mitigation

Executive Summary
The project titled ‘Strengthening National Forest Inventory and Satellite Land Monitoring System in support of
REDD+ in Bangladesh’ of Forest Department conducted GPS training in several Forest Divisions in the country
with the technical support of FAO and SilvaCarbon. First training was conducted in Patuakhali Coastal Forest
(CF) Division in 26‐27 August 2015. 12 participants (all male) were attended in the training. Around 23
participants (all male) from Bhola CF Division participated in GPS training on 19‐20 September 2015. GPS
training was also conducted in Noakhali and Chittagong Coastal Forest Division on 26‐27 October and 25‐26
November 2015 respectively. 31 Participants 29 male and 2 female) from Noakhali and 20 participants (all
male) from Chittagong Coastal Forest division attended in the training. Training also conducted in at
Cox’sBazar North and South Forest Division on 03‐04 January 2016. Altogether 43 participants (all male) were
attended in the training. 10 GPS were allocated for each of the Forest Divisions by USFS and SilvaCarbon.
Trainings were facilitated by the master trainers and Resource Information System Unit of Forest Department.
All participants were male which is likely to be a common trend in this kind of training due to the male
dominated gender balance at sub‐national Forest Department offices.
The training focused on the practical use and application of field GPS using Garmin 78s handheld devices that
are being concurrently distributed to field office representatives participating in the training. To this end, a
basic introduction of key GPS concepts were presented in Day 1, covering topics related to industrial uses of
GPS, satellite connectivity and data transmission. Day 2 was a practical session in nearby forest areas.
For the majority participants it was the first time they had attended a forest monitoring related training, yet
almost all commented that it was closely related to their daily work. Overall the training was received well,
with clear presentation style and effective use of training materials. The most limiting aspect of the training
was the component related to downloading data. More information related to evaluation is provided in 0.

1. Introduction The Bangladesh Forest Department conducts yearly plantations under a range of different development
project across the different forest divisions. It constitutes regular work for the department in their aims to
increase the country’s forest cover to 20%. Field offices from the department maintain records and prepare
plantation journals of the plantations. The plantation journal is a hand drawn map of the plantation areas and
lack actual positioning and representation of the area. As stated in FD’s 7th five year plan, substantial
plantation are proposed in the Hill Forest, Sal Forest, coastal areas and protected areas of the country during
2016‐2020. Plantation areas will be determined based on the land availability and will need to be properly
documented in the plantation journals to assist future planning. Plantation data is best collected via GPS.
The capacity building for mapping the plantation areas using GPS was piloted in one range of Chittagong North
Forest Division and one range of Coastal afforestation Division of the Forest Department with the support
from USFS in 2013. USFS also organized ToT training to develop GPS master trainers within the department.
Master trainers were involved in providing the trainings in different forest divisions.
GPS training is necessary for the field officials of respective forest divisions to provide the actual location of
the plantation in plantation journal. There are also insufficient GPS in the field divisions to collect data.
The project titled ‘Strengthening National Forest Inventory and Satellite Land Monitoring System in support of
REDD+ in Bangladesh’ of Forest Department conducted GPS training in Patuakhali, Bhola, Noakhali, Chittagong
Coastal and Cox’sBazar North and South Forest Divisions. FAO and SilvaCarbon assisted for the
implementation of the trainings. First training was conducted in Patuakhali Coastal Forest (CF) Division in 26‐
27 August 2015. 12 participants were attended in the training. Around 23 participants from Bhola CF Division
participated in GPS training on 19‐20 September 2015. Training was conducted in Noakhali and Chittagong
Coastal Forest Division on 26‐27 October and 25‐26 November 2015 respectively. 31 Participants from
Noakhali and 20 participants from Chittagong Coastal Forest division attended in the training. Training
conducted at Cox’sBazar North and South Forest Division on 03‐04 January 2016 and 43 participants were
attended the training. 10 GPS were allocated for each of the Forest Divisions by USFS and SilvaCarbon during
the training.
The content of the trainings and the information presented within are derived from the USAID funded GPS
manual prepared by CEGIS1.
2. Objectives The objectives of the training were:
Explain concepts of the function and use of GPS
Train FD officials from Forest Division in field GPS use

3. Summary of Presentations
3.1 Introduction to GPS The Global Positioning System is a satellite‐based radio navigation system. GPS was originally intended for
military applications, but in the 1980s, the US government made the system available for civilian use. There
are no subscription fees or setup charges to use GPS.
GPS permits users with suitable receivers to establish their position, speed and time on land, sea or in the air,
at any time of the day or night, and in any weather condition. The System is accurate within 30 metres, which
is equal to or better than any other radio navigation system available today.
A GPS receiver is used to collect GPS data
A GPS Receiver records information on location in the form of a point or a series of points.
Information on location includes Latitude, Longitude, Time, and a name at a minimum.
Each point or line can include additional information to better describe the location. This is called
Attribute Data.
GPS data can be transferred to a computer and used in a Geographic Information System (GIS).
FIGURE 1: THERE ARE MANY TYPES OF GPS RECIEVERS THAT ASSIST IN COLLECTING SPATIAL DATA.
3.2 GPS Technology Basics The Global Positioning System consists of three major segments: the Space Segment, the Control Segment,
and the User Segment.
The Space and Control Segments are operated by the United States Military and administered by the U.S.
Space Command of the U.S. Air Force. The Space Segment is composed of the constellation of satellites as a
whole that are currently in orbit, including operational, backup and inoperable units.
The Control Segment, basically maintains the integrity of both the satellites and the data that they transmit.
The User segment is simply all of the end users who have purchased any one of a variety of commercially
available receivers. While the User segment obviously includes military users, this manual will concentrates on
the civilian users only. When a GPS Receiver is turned on, it immediately begins searching the sky for satellite signals. At least three
satellites are required for the GPS receiver to achieve a ‘lock’ and log a position.
Poor weather, buildings or dense canopy may interfere with the GPS signal limiting the number of satellites
the receiver can communicate with.

3.3 Setting up Garmin The device operates on two AA batteries. Use Alkaline, NiMH, or lithium batteries for best result. To install
batteries
Slide the latch on the back of the device, and remove the battery cover.
Insert the batteries, observing polarity.
Replace the battery cover. To Turn on Device, press and hold ON button. It may take 30 to 60 seconds to acquire signals. Go outdoors to an open area.
If necessary, turn on the device.
Wait while the device searches for satellite
A question mark flashes while the device determines your location. User should calibrate the compass after moving long distances, experiencing temperature changes, or
changing the batteries.
From the compass page, press MENU.
Select Calibrate Compass > Start.
Follow the on‐ screen instructions. For more information see http://static.garmincdn.com/pumac/GPSMAP78_QuickStartManual.pdf

3.4 Data Collection There are three types of features that can be collected using your GPS receiver: Point, Line and Polygon. These
features are similar to Waypoint and Track and can all be created using the functions in the Garmin
GPSmap78S.
FIGURE 3: POINT, LINE AND POLYGON FEATURES ARE CALLED WAYPOINTS AND TRACKS IN GARMIN LANGUAGE.
In Garmin GPS map 78s, point feature is collected as a Waypoint and line feature is collected as a Track.
Polygon feature is also collected as a Track.
Actually, in Garmin GPS map 78s, there is no option to save the polygon feature as a polygon. Therefore,
specific procedures are followed to collect these polygon features as Track feature.
Points—Features that are too small to represent as lines or polygons as well as point location (such as a GPS
observations). A point may represent a civic asset such as a water point (tap).
Lines—Represent the shape and location of geographic objects, such as street centerlines and streams, too
narrow to depict as areas. Lines are also used to represent features that have length but no area such as
contour lines and boundaries.
Polygons—A set of many‐sided area features that represent the shape and location of homogeneous feature
types such as states, counties, parcels, soil types, and land‐use zones.
3.5 Map Use A map is classified as small scale or large scale or sometimes medium scale. Small scale refers to world maps
or maps of large regions, such as continents or large nations. In other words, they show large areas of land on
a small space. They are called small scale because the representative fraction is relatively small. Large scale
maps show smaller areas in more details, such as county maps or town plans might.

3.6 Navigation with GPS By entering waypoints you can use the GPS receiver to assist in navigation. Using Map Page, you will navigate
any reference point. Using the Rocker button, you will move around the cursor.
FIGURE 5: MAP PAGES ARE USED TO ASSIST NAVIGATION
