Challenges
• Contour Map and DTM map for Vanua Levu – incomplete
• No formal training for ArcGIS
• Connectivity problems - internal

Way Forward
• Vegetation typing for Vanua Levu and other islands.
• Dry and wet forest mapping using precipitation
• Sub-category mapping from high resolution satellite images.
