Sponsored by: Directions Magazine India

Sponsor: Click here to register

Join us for a presentation from Dr. Mukund Rao on GI policy for India. Over the years, India has developed successful GIS-based activities in imaging (from satellites and other aerial platforms), mapping (topographic and thematic), surveying, positioning and GIS (databases and applications) - both in government and the private sector, and also that policies for Open Series topographic maps, remote sensing data, aerial survey flight permission guidelines and data sharing have been serving the national needs.
 
National GI Policy is a holistic policy perspective for establishment of National GIS. It is essential to establish National GIS for supporting good governance, sustainable and inclusive development and citizen empowerment through an operational GIS-based Decision Support service.
 
NIAS took the initiative and brought out a report on National GI Policy, going further in proposing a draft for a National GI Policy. The report is now submitted to DST and they will take up the next steps in formalizing the policy.
 
About Dr Mukund Rao 
Dr. Rao serves as Member-Secretary of the National GIS Interim Core Group, where he is presently involved in building the vision of National GIS in India. He has vast experience in GIS and EO Solutions business development/consulting and has been engaged in implementing large GIS projects in India, the Middle East and the Asia/Pacific region, as well as in the US.
