The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) has asked the National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC) to be more competitive in data marketing. Concerned over the “negligible” returns from sale of satellite imagery, the parliamentary panel, in a draft report on activities of the NRSC, appeared to brush aside department of space (DoS) contention that remote sensing was treated as a “public good service” rather than commercial activity. The report was adopted at a meeting of the PAC last week and is expected to be tabled in Parliament soon.
