The School of Environmental and Earth Sciences has established on 1st July 1999. The School has

a building with 7500 sq. m. built up area and vast open space. In shorts span of period, the School

has established excellent laboratories and library facilities to get quality education in the field of

Environment and Earth sciences. School offers four Post Graduate courses in Environmental

Science, Applied Geology, Applied Geography and M. Tech in Environmental Science and

Technology. In addition the school is conducting UGC approved Career oriented certificate course

in Industrial Safety and Management.

Aditi Infotech is a software solution provider company in the gneiss field of Geology, Hydrology,

Geochemical, Environmental, GIS & Image Processing softwares.

Company offers the training program / courses in Geographic Information System (GIS) and

Remote Sensing (RS) techniques. for the students, Academic Institutions, Government &

Commercial organizations by using various application software. Company also provides training

on the concept, techniques and application part of the GIS & RS, during these training

program/course the software will be use like ESRI’s ArcGIS 10, Clark Lab’s TerrSet, DIVA GIS (Open

Source) etc. and hardware with latest configuration machines.

Vision: To establish, run and gradually build up a training institute with state-of-the art GIS & RS

infrastructure in Central India so as to remove the digital divide amongst various stake-holders,

and promote a GISRS-enabled community, enhancing power-users of GISRS in terms of quality

and numbers.

Mission: To train the seekers/participants (students, Geologist and Engineers) in GIS & RS courses

at an affordable price.

Profile of the instructors:

We have GIS & RS experts as our consultants and faculty with extensive experience of more than

15 years in their respective disciplines. They have worked as key persons in Government

Organizations and have been associated with collaborative training projects with ITC, the

Netherlands and BRGM, France.

digital format

❑ Georeferencing: The concept, Procedure and practical in georeferencing.

❑ Data Interpretation: Characteristics of GIS-Remote Sensing datasets, aerial photographs and

digital imagery. Use remote sensing materials to conduct resource inventories, and land use

evaluation, and landform/surface (slope/aspect) analysis. Raster based spatial analysis, Map

algebra

❑ Image classification: Supervised and Unsupervised classification

❑ Geostatistics: Spatial statistics and geo-statistics, Interpolation comparison

data handling, aggregation, translation, analysis, interpretation and mapping of geographic

information, Spatial data properties and structure, Joining spatial and tabular records,

projection definition and conversion, Attribute query, joining and relating, projection

❑ Toposheets Sources: Server or websites from where toposheets can be download.

❑ Satellite Imageries: Sources from where satellite imageries can be downloaded. Applies for

Indian Sensors data and Working with Satellite Imageries: Pan-Sharpening, Scene Mosaicking,

Clipping in area of interests.

❑ Projection System: Working with various coordinate system, assigning geographic or

projected coordinate system, change the data coordinate system.

❑ Spatial Analysis: Investigation of GIS techniques used for decision support systems, scenario

planning, 3-D Visualization, suitability analysis

❑ Symbology: Assign symbol, colour scheme Creating Map Layout:

All the modules will be covered through theory classes and

hands-on/practical session.

GIS is a comprehensive technology that has been specifically designed to compile, process,

analyse, display, and archive extensive volumes of geographic data. A well designed, implemented,

and supported GIS management structure is applicable in wide range of developmental activities.

Sophisticated technology is required to find, extract, and manage the resources in the Earth crust.

Since mining is inherently spatial, requiring accurate knowledge of areas of the Earth surface and

subsurface, geospatial technology is best suited to intelligently oversee all phases of the mine

operation. GIS provides tools for optimum management of water , energy, raw materials including

human resources to the industries. GIS is having wide applicability in all aspects of life and so there

is no limit for its use.

GIS can be used by industries to target mineral exploration, evaluate mining conditions, model

mine construction, geochemical and hydrological data. GIS can also be employed in applying for

mining permits, assessing environmental impact and designing closure and reclamation plans.

❑ Eligibility: Any graduate.

❑ Fees: Rs. 2000/-

❑ Duration: 1 week (40 Hours)

This course covers theoretical and practical techniques of developing a Project GIS, theoretical and

practical aspects of multi-thematic spatial data capture and analysis, data and knowledge-driven

spatial modeling of geographic phenomena for favourability, site-suitability, classification of

analytic GIS capabilities, measurement, spatial queries and classification; introduction to overlay

functions including vector overlay operators, raster overlay operators, overlay using decision

tables, 3D data capture and data analysis; data visualization of qualitative data, quantitative data,

terrain elevation and digital cartography.

GLOBAL GIS Market, By APPLICATION, $M (2013–2023)

Courtesy: Prescient & Strategic Intelligence Pvt. Ltd.

Based on component, the GIS market has been categorized into hardware, software, data and

skilled personals among which the data component contributed the largest revenue, accounting

for around 60% share, to the market in 2017. It is currently the fastest-growing category in the

market, owing to its use in mapping, telecom, and network services. The increasing demand for GIS

software and professionals services from the government, defense, and transportation sectors is

also contributing significantly to the market growth.
