Geospatial Technology platform for G-governance
The 73rd and 74th Constitution Amendments 1993, for rural and urban areas are the realization of consistent and conscious effort towards decentralized planning which have provided the much needed constitutional legitimacy to local governance institutions, defined their functional domains and provided financial devolution to these institutions. Space based Information Support for Decentralized Planning (SISDP) project was formulated by NRSC and was implemented in partnership with State Remote Sensing Application Centres in the country to provide basic planning inputs derived from satellite data. The major deliverables viz. Satellite Image of 2.5 m resolution for the entire country and thematic maps on 1:10000 scale, generated for the first time in the country are extremely useful in meeting the current requirements of developmental, planning, implementation and monitoring activities at Panchayat / Village Level
“Empowering Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) and the Stakeholders with Space Based Information Support for Decentralized Planning and Governance ”.
Together, let's leverage the power of thematic data layers for enhanced understanding and sustainable development in rural areas.
Our land cover data layer offers valuable insights into the types and distribution of land use across different regions. This data provides a comprehensive understanding of the Earth's surface, including forests, urban areas, agricultural land, water bodies, and more. Our data can assist users in making informed decisions related to land management, resource allocation, and sustainable development.
Understanding the distribution and characteristics of drainage systems and water bodies is crucial for various fields, such as hydrology, water resource management, and environmental studies. Our drainage and water bodies data layer offers detailed information about rivers, lakes, reservoirs, wetlands, and other water features. This data enables user to assess water availability, monitor water quality, and analyze flood risks for sustainable water management.
Efficient transportation and infrastructure networks are vital for economic development and connectivity in rural areas. Our infrastructure data layer includes information on roads and railways providing a comprehensive overview of transportation routes and networks. This data assists users in transportation planning, infrastructure development, logistics optimization, and assessing accessibility to various areas.
Our settlements data layer focuses on human settlements, providing comprehensive information about urban areas, towns, and villages. This data helps user understand the spatial characteristics and patterns of settlements, supporting their work in urban planning, infrastructure development, and demographic analysis. This data is invaluable in understanding the dynamics of human habitation and guiding development initiatives.
In India, Gram Panchayat (GP) is the basic planning unit in the bottom-up model of decentralized developmental planning. Land and water resources development planning in rural areas is a subject matter of local authorities from Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs). In order to avoid haphazard development, endeavours are being made to orient the space technology towards providing technical assistance in preparing sustainable development plans.
Land Resources Development Plan tool is a powerful decision-making model that utilizes a logical combination of thematic maps, ground knowledge, and field data to achieve effective land resource management and development. The LRDP tool incorporates several thematic maps, including land use/cover, soil, slope, and groundwater potential maps.By integrating these thematic maps, LRDP tool enables a comprehensive understanding of the land resources and their potential for different activities.
By leveraging the capabilities of the LRDP tool, land resource managers, planners, and decision-makers can make informed choices regarding land use activities. The tool facilitates effective land resource allocation, minimizing conflicts, maximizing productivity, and promoting sustainable utilization of land resources.
Through the integration of remote sensing, GIS analysis, and ground knowledge, LRDP tool empowers users to optimize land resources, balance economic growth with environmental conservation, and support the overall development objectives of the region.
Water Resource Development Plan (WRDP) is a comprehensive framework that enables effective water resource management and sustainable development. Similar to the Land Resources Development Plan (LRDP), the WRDP utilizes a combination of thematic maps, hydrological data, and ground knowledge to optimize water resource allocation and enhance water management practices.
WRDP tool products are of two types - Area (zone) based products and location-based products. Area-based products ( Contour Trenches, Contour Bunds, Percolation tank, Farm pond, Farm bund and khadin) promotes in-situ conservation of the moisture or water storage. The location-based products (Loose Boulder Check Dam, Gabion Structures, Nala bund, Minor irrigation tank, and sub-surface dyke) within 50m stream buffer area suggest soil conservation and water harvesting practices.
Experience the capabilities of LRDP and WRDP tools and unlock the potential for sustainable land resource planning and water management.
