Remote Sensing Applications

The remote sensing applications at NRSC has a vision to develop space technology  utilization methods and operationalize  natural resources inventory and monitoring at national, regional and local scales and provide timely inputs for modeling and disaster management (DM) and capacity building through outreach. Hence the generation  of operational dynamic thematic databases. e.g : land use / landcover, geomorphology, cropping pattern, water bodies information, etc are carried out at suitable spatial, spectral, radiometric  and temporal resolutions. In order to fulfill the application vision, we have inter disciplinary teams to accomplish, they are as follows - agriculture, water resources, land resources inventory and monitoring , forestry & ecology, geosciences, urban studies & geo-informatics, disaster management support   and  application software development & infrastructure development .

Satellite data is being utilised extensively for several national mission projects in collaboration with the ministries / departments of   State and Central Governments. More Details...
