From the surveys and interviews carried out for this study. it became evident that establishment of a national population information support system that can collect. organize and process such information to meet users requirements had become crucial to development planning in the country . An attempt has been made to assess users of population information (their information needs. the sources they used. their information seeking behavior, etc.) and the existing support facilities. Interviews, onsite study. reviewing of relevant documents and questionnaire survey were the methods employed for the purpose of data and fact collection . The results of the survey generally indicated that users have problems in timely access to reliable. and adequate To provide a conceptual and structural framework for the establishmnt of a population information support system . the study proposes network and elaborates a population information (POPINET) to be established. providing a better foundation f o r the information support system. Use of GIS in population activities and population project ion support system with special emphasis on urban -regional planning and the development of related databases are proposed and discussed . Recommendations to enhance the level of population information support and recommendations specific to the population information network (POPINET) are presented. - | en_US |
