"GIS Appl icat ion in Cropping System Analysis - Case Studies in Asia" is a product of the hands-on training program for scientists f rom Asian national agricultural research systems (NARS) on the use of geographic informat ion system (GIS) in analysis of cropping systems. The main objective of this training program was to pave a progressive path towards greater understanding and use of GIS for meaningful interpretat ion of various datasets. This publication contains an overview and methodologies of GIS software.
