Box 5.5 KMApps and MapviewThe Asian Development Bank is developing a knowledge management applications (KMApps) to support knowledge capturing, sharing and dissemination by department, sector and theme. KMApps arean electronic tool to manage, access and share information amongdepartments, committees and networks. Each KMApp has elevenmodules: library, calendar, concern, cooperation, correspondence,forum, indicators, lessons learned, news, operations, and profiles. The eleven modules for the KMApps contain data and information for sixsector and thematic committees, including water, urban development,governance and capacity building, regional cooperation, private sectordevelopment, and non-governmental organizations. The KMApps will beextended to additional sector and thematic committees and networksas well as other departments. It will support the construction of virtualworkplaces that can be accessed by all staff anytime, anywhere. Theseworkplaces will be open to all ADB staff and its offices worldwide. The Bank is also developing a spatial database called Mapview tostore maps and map-related resources and materials generated forADB projects. Spatial information range from remote sensing tosatellite imagery, and from topography maps to site photographs. WithMapview, developing member countries data can be seen on a map orfrom a spatial context. ADB staff can use the map library (capture), add new data (enrichment), post a new map (storage), and share the new map (dissemination). Creation of a single environment where peoplecan store and share spatial maps will result in improved efficiency andcost-effectiveness in designing projects.
