Geoinformatics
or Geomatics is the synergy of multiple disciplines,
namely, Geographic Information System (GIS), remote
sensing, photogrammetry, cartography, Global Positioning
System (GPS) and geodesy. It is fundamental to all disciplines,
which use data identified by their locations. Geomatics
deals with spatial and non-spatial data, their methods
of acquisition, management, analysis, display and dissemination.
Applications of geomatics are mainly oriented to real
world management problems pertaining to natural and
man-made environments.
C-DAC is engaged
in geomatics activities for over a decade. The Geomatics
Solutions Development Group (GSDG) offers
technology solutions in areas like Thematic Mapping,
Spatial Database Development, Terrain Visualisation,
Spatial Decision Support System and Web GIS.
The mission of the Group is "To excel
in offering geo-intelligence solutions for effective
planning, management and governance".
