The project is aimed at providing a tool that can be used in the field in remote areas with no or slow internet connections and at providing interactive tools that can be used in teaching at in academic institutions and for capacity building. The virtual image is based on the OSGEO live project and is running on a Lubuntu operating system. Download the zipped vdi file - size is a wooping 6.6 GB - for use with VirtualBox here: terragis.net . The unzipped image tsec32_v1.0.vdi is 20GB big (is based on 32 bit) and can be used to start a virtual machine with a complete installation of the __Tanzania Food and Land Productivity Information System__ inside your local installation of the virtual box software. ## Presentation of the Tanzania Food and Land Productivity Information System The Tanzania Food and Land Productivity Information System - with a focus on the Land Evaluation Tool - was presented at FOSS4G 2018 in Da …
