G.Map@Dali was Dali Global Village Eco-Tourism(DGVET) first GREENMAP project to try to promote GREEN awareness thru the icons to the locals. Being overwhelmed by massive GREEN slogans and advetisments locally. We have to link the message onto the world here. Dali was the first stop on the main chinese tourists route in westrn Yunnan. Nested at the foot of Mt Cang beside Lake Er at 2000m, the Ancient City of Dali had been around for more then 2000 years. Being the main city on the Southern Silk Road (aka Burma Trail), the city was now still filled by travellers from all over the world in the booming travel industry. With the immense growth in domestic & foreign tourists, along brought much to be dealt with in, the limited capacity to process the remains left by the millions. to what extend? we'll be extending & beyond...

The Australian Toilet Map

Sydney Greenmapper for Disability and Social Access — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 22:17:59 -0400

The Australian Toilet Map

Created by:

Sydney Greenmapper for Disability and Social Access

Map Details

About the Map:

Whilst this map is not strictly a GreenMap, It does address a concern of greenmapping which is access to sites by the elderly, those with disabilities and those with families. The National Public Toilet Map (the Map) shows the location of more than 14,000 public and private public toilet facilities across Australia. Details of toilet facilities can also be found along major travel routes and for shorter journeys as well. Useful information is provided about each toilet, such as location, opening hours, availability of baby change rooms, accessibility for people with disabilities and the details of other nearby toilets. The Map is funded by the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing as part of the National Continence Management Strategy. What does the Map do? The Map provides toilet information for the estimated 3.8 million Australians who are affected by incontinence: * information on the nearest public toilet * the capacity to plan short and longer journeys * improves independence and quality of life * is convenient for people with young families The Map is a useful tool for anyone undertaking a trip or holiday by providing information on suitable toilet breaks before the journey begins. The Map: * details opening hours * assists in finding toilets in a town/suburb * identifies toilets that can be accessed by people with a disability * assists planning a trip or holiday with suitable toilet and rest breaks known before the journey begins * assists planning a trip around town or between towns and cities

Green Map Guide to Thailand's National Parks

Created by:

Past Mapmakers

Map Details

About the Map:

Coming to the of Thailand's National Park Year we produced this map because we feel that you should know the current state of Thailand's remaining forests. This map is to be published annually and your recommendations just may be listed on the next publication. Thailand's National Park Green Map was published in January 2001, and this remote sensing aerial photo map covered the widest area of any Green Map to date! With text in both Thai and English, many interesting details about the country's parks and natural heritage are highlighted. A student competition was held to design the cover. There were 152,000 copies of the map (both folding maps and posters) published and distributed to schools, in the Sunday Bangkok Post, to new car owners, and through tourist information. In 2002, even more copies were distributed! This project is led by David Tarrant, eco-tourism specialist with Project Eco Co. Ltd., along with several supporters and the Thai Green Network Foundation. The draft version was presented to the public at the World Environment Day Exhibition at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Centre on June 5, 2000. In July 2002, this project sponsored workshops and meetings coinciding with a visit from Green Map System's director and education outreach specialist. 30 eco-educators gathered to discuss potential new projects. In 2005, Thailand Environment Institute took on the project - marvelous things have happened!
