The coming 15 years
Will there be a study program like Photogrammetry and Geoinformatics necessary in 2029?• spatial awareness of people will still grow• the spatial dimension of many problems will gain more importance (Poverty reduction programs, disaster management, agriculture, environmental education, sustainable management of natural resources, biodiversity, health and medicine,…)
How will the program look like?• more online and shared modules in a network grid of cooperating
university departments all over the world• more exchange of students and lecturers• more cooperation of private and public institutions with complete
transparency supplemented by participatory and crowdsourcing approaches
Still there will be the need for human interaction and collective training to get a common understanding for the problems of our globalized world!

HTWG Konstanz | Welcome to GlobopolisOne Chance Only
"It has often been said that, if the human species fails to make a go of it here on Earth, some other species will take over the running. In the sense of developing high intelligence this is not correct. We have, or soon will have, exhausted the necessary physical prerequisites so far as this planet is concerned. With coal gone, oil gone, high-grade metallic ores gone, no species however competent can make the long climb from primitive conditions to high-level technology. This is a one-shot affair. If we fail, this planetary system fails so far as intelligence is concerned. The same will be true of other planetary systems. On each of them there will be one chance, and one chance only."
Sir Fred Hoyle, "Of Men and Galaxies," 1964

For emergency and disaster management, analysis of publicbehavior, such as how people prepare and respond to disasters, is important for evacuation planning.
Social media has played a pervasive role in the way people think, act, and react to the world (more than 40 million Americans use social media web sites multiple times a day
Social media is changing the way people communicate not only in their daily lives, but also during abnormal events, such as natural disasters.

United States of America Poverty defined in absolute term since 1960.
Measure of poverty in US is the poverty threshold.
threshold below which the families and individuals are considered to be lacking the resources to meets the basic needs for the healthy living ; having the insufficient income to provide the foods, shelter and clothing needed to preserve health.
For the individual who do not live with family members their own income is compared with appropriate threshold.
U.S. Census Bureau determines poverty status by comparing pre-tax cash income against a threshold that is set at three times the cost of a minimum food diet in 1963, updated annually for inflation using the Consumer Price Index, and adjusted for family size, composition, and age of householder. 05/01/2023
Poverty Situation: A Comparison of Different Countries 88
The Paradox ‘The typical American defined as poor by the
government has a car, air conditioning, a refrigerator, a stove, a clothes washer and dryer, and a microwave. He has two colour televisions, cable or satellite TV reception, a VCR or DVD player, and a stereo. He is able to obtain medical care. His home is in good repair and is not overcrowded. By his own report, his family is not hungry, and he had sufficient funds in the past year to meet his family’s essential needs. While this individual’s life is not opulent, it is equally far from the popular images of dire poverty conveyed by the press, liberal activists, and politicians’ (Rector and Johnson, 2004:1)
05/01/2023Poverty Situation: A Comparison of

Europe defined in relation to the distribution of income within
each of 56 country in Europe. 1984 European Council Decision states: poor are
persons, families and groups of persons where resources (material, cultural and social) are so limited as to exclude them from a minimum acceptable way of life in the Member States in which they live (European Commission 1985, see Meijer 1999).
individuals living in households where the equivalised income is below the threshold of 60 % of the national equivalised median income (According to Euro stat's)
income deprivation within European countries leaves income gaps between countries.
distribution of poverty across Europe ranging from 4 percent poverty rate in Lithunia to a 35% rate in Ukraine.

China people whose income is less than $1.25 per day set by
World Bank measured in 2 ways◦ Food Poverty Line
China in order to set a poverty line has chosen a calorie level i.e. intake of nutrition equivalent to 2100 calories per person per day.
Planning done on the basis of a food basket.◦ General Poverty Line◦ This looks as the issue of determining basic non-food
expenditure so as to obtain a general poverty line and are divided into two:
Direct: To calculate the cost of various non-food items such as clothing, housing, energy consumption etc
Indirect: Setting the basic non-food expenditure at a level just consistent with maintaining the food expenditure at the basic level

India: Evolution of Poverty line In 1962 the devised poverty line was a minimum consumer
expenditure of Rs. 20 per capita per month In 1979, Task Force under Dr Y. K. Alagh defined the
poverty line as “per capita consumption expenditure level, which meets the average per capita daily calorie requirement of 2400 kcal in rural areas and 2100 kcal in urban areas along with the expenditure on non-food items such as clothing, shelter, transport, education, health care, etc.”
In 1993, an Expert Group under the chairmanship of professor D. T. Lakdawala recommended to calculate state specific poverty lines taking the earlier 1973-74 price level as the base line.
In 2009, the Planning Commission set up another expert group under the chairmanship of Professor Suresh Tendulkar. A rural urban specific, state specific, weighted aggregate for different base years are calculated for the national aggregate poverty line.

consumption. Considers non-food expenditure actually incurred
corresponding to this total expenditure. Difficult to consider minimum non-food needs entirely

decreased from 38% (1998) to 3% (2009) (Jeni Klugman).
Surge of poverty again became a problem between 2009-10, because of recession and rise in all prices.

Africa In Sub-Saharan Africa extreme poverty went up from 41
percent in 1981 to 46 percent in 2001, which combined with growing population increased the number of people living in extreme poverty from 231 million to 318 million.
nearly half of the population on the African continent remains poor and jobless despite significant improvement in economic growth (UN 2006).
Over the period 1960-2000, Africa’s population-weighted per capita annual growth of GDP was a mere 0.1%. Between 1980 and2000 the annual rate of divergence was an astounding 5%.

South-East AsiaMalaysia and Singapore have healthy
economies and low poverty rates (Szczepanski, 2005).
Thailand and Philippines are on their way to recovery after severe set-backs during the disastrous Asian Financial Crisis of 1998 when the corporate culture of banks and governments could not deal with global capital flows.
Nations such as Cambodia, Laos, Burma, and East Timor rank near the bottom of global development lists.

China China’s poverty research has so far been confined
to the rural areas. This can be explained by the following two points. ◦ For a long time a strict household registration
system was used, which restricted the influx of rural population into urban areas
◦ The cities had a comparatively perfect system of employment and social security.
urban poverty had not become as serious as its rural poverty.

Different Countries 108
USA◦ Loss of a job: nearly 20 percent of people enter poverty when the
head of household loses a job.◦ Decline in earnings: half of poverty spells begin with the
household experiences a decline in earnings.◦ No high school degree: households headed by someone without a
high school degree have a high likelihood of entering poverty.◦ Female-headed household: When a two-adult household becomes
a female-headed household 20.1 percent entered poverty.◦ Having children: 8.6 percent of poverty entries happen when a
child is born into a household.◦ Disability: when a head of household becomes disabled, 6.5
percent of households enter poverty.◦ Child poverty: low level of parental work and high numbers of
single-parent families” (Rector and Johnson, 2004, p.16).

Europe Europe appears to be uniformly highly developed. A wide variety of human development levels emerge
across and within European countries most European face challenges of human development or poverty.
fight against poverty has a long history in the EU, starting as early as the 1970s.
In recent decades, the issue of the ‘working poor’ slowly entered the public debate in the EU
In the past, having a job would successfully protect someone from the risk of poverty.
Due to changes in the labour market such as the development of a low-paid services sector, as well as in private life and family structures like growing number of single parents, work and poverty were no longer self-exclusive.

Russia Soviet Union broke apart in 1991, the transition has been
difficult for many Russians. With the sudden shift in its economy and privatization in
public enterprises, tones of industries collapsed leading to unemployment and loss of social assistance and wages.
Socialism in Russia was able to keep the poverty levels low. However, after 1991, one third of Russians lived below poverty line.
By 1994, real income had fallen by 60% from1991 Tregional differentiation of welfare indicators increased
dramatically between 1992 and 1994.

Who are Russia’s Poor Households with unemployed members are found to
be four times poorer than those with jobs (1992). Household with women population are 3.7 times
poorer. households with population under the age of 64 are
1.7times poorer. Those with high school or less level of education are
3.2 times poorer than those with high school plus education.
60% of poor households fall within the age group of 18-64 and has no surplus income.
Working poor also predominates Russia.

Africa: Impact of Poverty About 50 % of the African population lives in slums.
◦ From the outskirts of Johannesburg in South Africa to the Interior of Kibera (Africa’s largest and worst slum) in Kenya.
Three-fourths of the poor population in Western and Central Africa are subsistence farmers.
A child dies every three seconds from AIDS and due to extreme poverty before their fifth birthday.
More than 50 percent of Africans suffer from water-related diseases.
57% of African children are enrolled in primary education, and one in three of those does not complete school.
64% of children in Sub-Saharan Africa do not have adequate sanitation.
2,00,000 child slaves are sold every year in Africa. an estimated 8,000 girl-slaves in West Africa alone.

South-East AsiaHigh incidence of rural poverty incidence of poverty in rural areas can be
five times as high as that in urban areas. For example, in Vietnam, the incidence of
poverty in rural areas stands at 36 per cent versus 7 per cent for urban areas.
Only Myanmar registers an incidence of poverty that is higher in urban areas than in rural areas

China China has maintained a high growth rate for more than
30 years since the beginning of economic reform in 1978 leading to huge increase in average living standard.
As per the World Bank’s Household survey in China, the poverty rate in China in 1981 was 64% of the population. This rate declined to 10% in 2004, indicating that about 500 million people have climbed out of poverty during this period.
From 1981 to 2007, fall in the poverty head count from 18.5 percent to less than 2 percent
China has undoubtedly made the largest single contribution to global poverty reduction of any country in the last 20 years.

Poverty Mapped ?Not really?
Poor Economic condition=done?Lack of basic necessities= done?
Urban and Rural Poverty ?What about use of GIS?
Urban Poverty Mapping using GIS (Mapping Slums)
Level 3:Carry out household Sample Survey and Analyze the data after integrating spatial and socio-economic data along with HH sample data using different techniques( Small
area estimation, regression etc)
Level 2:Link Spatial Data to census information with focus on
Economic Condition(socio-economic data that is collected includes employment, caste, education and family size..) as well as access to basic necessities (information about
infrastructure and access to facilities such as toilets, water,education..) etc.
Level 1:Create critical spatial data of slums graphically overlaid onto the remote sensing image or extract missing data
from ImageValidate the data with existing map in the city to get a
slum-wide or city-wide view of the data
Urban Poverty Mapping using GIS (Mapping Slums)
Level 1:Create critical spatial data
of slums ( Example of Ahmedabad City) , 1998-
2005

SJSRY .The 32% of the slum dwellers in the
city occupy 8% of the total residential land.

Level 3:Poverty Analysisto
present disaggregated information to capture
heterogeneity( Small area estimation)
These Situations where household surveys are too small to be representative at levels of disaggregation, and most census data do not contain the required information to calculate
poverty.Step 1: consists in the estimation of regressions that model expenditure
or consumption using a set of explanatory variables that are common to both the HH survey
and the census (e.g. household size, education, housing and
infrastructure characteristics and demographic variables)
Source: http://web.worldbank.org/WBSITE/EXTERNAL/TOPICS/EXTPOVERTY/
Object-oriented mapping of urban poverty and deprivation.
Step2: Estimated coefficients from these regressions to
predict expenditure or consumption for every
household in the census on the basis of the explanatory
variables that are common to the census and the survey.
These household-unit data are then used to compute poverty
estimates for small areas.
•Inter-departmental synergy•Data Mapping techniques•Land Mafia occupying lands•Multiple spatial data models•Multiple systems using GIS•Multiple departments building GIS applications from scratch•Redundant data across multiple systems with no clear system of record (metadata)•Lack of integration between spatial and MIS data
Challenges ahead
