Analyzing the LGU Situation:
LDIS and RaPIDS
Session Objectives
1.To discuss how the LDIS is accomplished and
how it is used as a tool for planning
2. To discuss how CDRA is used in supplying
data for LDIS/RaPIDS
Analyzing the LGU Situation:
LDIS and RaPIDS

Mainstreaming CCA-DRRM in CDP
Types of Indicators
Final Indicators – measure the effect of an intervention on individuals’ well-
being. Final indicators may be divided into outcome and impact indicators
Impact Indicators – measure key dimensions of well-being, e.g.
freedom from hunger, literacy, good health, empowerment, security
Outcome Indicators – capture access to, use of, or satisfaction with
the services provided or received, e.g. access to clean water,
proportion of mothers availing of family planning clinics, volume and
frequency of letters of complaints, etc.

Extracting
Intelligence
Restate the observation either based on statistical
information or derived from map overlay analysis.
Determine the cause or causes of the observed
condition. If uncertain, formulate hypotheses or
educated guesses to be validated later.
Map overlay process illustrated
Take any pair of thematic maps, say “Existing Land Use” and
“Erosion Areas” in the same map scale.
Overlay the two maps and note land uses that are vulnerable to
erosion such as settlements, agricultural crops, etc.
Measure the area affected, recording the actual location to the
nearest barangay or sitio.
Present observations in table form.
