Introduction Remote sensing, the ability to obtain information about an area or object without direct physical contact, in today’s time, acts as one of the biggest inputs for data-driven smart agriculture. “Digital agriculture” which is the use of new and advanced technology to enable smarter and more sustainable food production, depends largely on the availability… Continue reading Remote Sensing Technology: The Mainstay of Digital Agriculture

Introduction Nuclear energy is one of the most efficient and pollution free source of energy for catering the modern civilization, it is being considered a pioneer in the development of modern technological advancement in society. However, when a power plant reaches the end of its useful life it is decommissioned, demolished and shut down so… Continue reading Application of GIS for Decommissioning of Nuclear Plant

Objectives Maritime transportation has been benefitting the humankind since ages whether it being used for trading or transportation, since past few decades we are observing a rapid increase in international and inland waterway on world scale, currently, about 90 percent of intercontinental trade is handled by sea transport. Sea port forms a platform where all… Continue reading Maritime Port Management with GIS

Introduction   Precision forestry is a method in which the characteristics of forests, treatments, biodiversity preservation, and recreational opportunities can be accurately determined, at the forest stand, plot, or individual tree level. Precision forestry requires a plethora of information and data which needs to be accurate, spatially detailed, up to date, and must characterize the… Continue reading Precision Forestry : A Revolution through Remote Sensing Technology

TREE CROWN MAPPING USING LiDAR    Importance of Tree Surveying We are well aware of the fact that trees are the integral part of our eco system as well as our flora and fauna. Mapping forest reserves and vegetation is critical to economic development and to understanding our environment; it provides information about the age… Continue reading LiDAR for Tree Crown Mapping

Many sensors carried aboard satellites measure red and near-infrared light waves reflected by land surfaces. Using mathematical formulas (algorithms), one can transform raw satellite data about these light waves into vegetation indices. A vegetation index is an indicator that describes the greenness i.e. the relative density and health of vegetation, for each pixel in a… Continue reading Significance of Spectral Indexes in Accurate Vegetation Analysis

How modern Geospatial technology can be an asset in climate change studies?   Introduction: Climate change is the most important and defining issue in the present scenario. Climate change refers to the changing climatic pattern and rise in the average surface temperature of the earth. Climate change is evident from the changing weather pattern, melting… Continue reading How modern Geospatial technology can be an asset in climate change studies?

The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) defines sustainable development as 'sustainable development is the management and conservation of natural resources base and the orientation of technological and institutional changes in such a manner as to ensure the attainment and continued satisfaction of human needs for present and future generations. Such sustainable development conserves land, water,… Continue reading Geospatial Technology Fostering Sustainability and Sustainable Development Goals
