GEO-INFER-CIV

Instructions

Core Capabilities

• STEW-MAP: Stewardship mapping for community organizations and land trusts
• Participatory GIS: Community-driven spatial data collection and validation
• Civic engagement: Public participation in spatial planning processes
• Citizen science: Volunteer geographic information (VGI) management
• Democratic planning: Inclusive spatial decision support systems

Key Imports

from geo_infer_civ.core.stew_map import StewardshipMapper
from geo_infer_civ.core.participatory import ParticipatoryGIS
from geo_infer_civ.core.engagement import CivicEngagementPlatform

Examples

from geo_infer_civ.core.stew_map import StewardshipMapper

mapper = StewardshipMapper()
mapper.register_organization("Friends of Park", boundary=park_polygon)
stewardship_map = mapper.build_map(region_bounds)
overlap = mapper.analyze_coverage_gaps(stewardship_map)

Guidelines

• STEW-MAP partially implemented (Alpha)

Integrations

• Integrates with PLACE for geographic boundary resolution
• Integrates with COMMS for community notification
• Test: uv run python -m pytest GEO-INFER-CIV/tests/ -v
