As under ISRO’s data sharing policy and its usage for the development of state, IIRS offers its technical support and guidance on data sharing as per requirement/needs of line department functioning in the district. Whereas, to avoid the duplicity of data and its validity the consensus was given to use existing SDI facility which was earlier present at UCOST for its up-gradation and to fetch all relevant information at common platform/server. Further, capacity building for the existing GIS Cell already established in all 13 districts along with the capacity building workshops will be conducted in support of IIRS (ISRO), NRDMS (Almora University)& UCOST in the coming weeks.
