description This applied study integrates both, social science and hard science in community development. Community capital inventory mapping assisted with GIS application is a way forward to hasten the Orang Asli (indigenous people) community development programme planning. Backwardness is always associated with this minority. There are many reasons for this, and one of them may contribute by the unmatched between community’s need and capability of the development program. This study aims at identifying and locating the community capital among the Orang Asli. A total of nine villages and 773 Orang Asli involved in this pioneer study. The study comprised three phases; phase 1 is about a social survey; phase 2 is tracking location in digital map (hard science component); and phase 3 is the integration process between soft science (primary data from the social survey) and hard science to develop the community capital digital map. This paper discusses the process of community capital inventory mapping.
