Synopsis Sustainable Development Using Geospatial Techniques by : Disha Thakur
This book is a must-have for anyone interested in leveraging geospatial technology, as it covers a wide range of applications and offers valuable insights into the mapping, visualization, and analysis of natural resource planning using GIS, remote sensing, and GPS. Geospatial technology (GT) is a combination of geographic information systems (GIS), remote sensing (RS), and the global position system (GPS) for the mapping, visualization, and analysis of natural resource planning. Nowadays, GIS is widely used throughout the globe for a wide range of applications. GIS is a system that combines locations, geography, hardware, software, statistics, planning, and digital mapping. GIS is a system in which one can store, manipulate, analyze, and visualize or display spatial data. The basic components of GIS are hardware, software, data, input, and manpower. One can develop spatial, temporal, and dynamic models using GIS, which may help in effective decision-making tools. Geospatial information is a computer programme that collects, stores, verifies, and presents information on locations on the surface of the Earth. Geographical information systems play a key role in sustainable development. Geospatial technology combines traditional database operations like query and statistical analysis with the specific graphical and geographic analytical capabilities offered by maps.

Synopsis Sustainable Development Practices Using Geoinformatics by : Varun Narayan Mishra
This exciting new volume will provide a comprehensive overview of the applications of geoinformatics technology for engineers, scientists, and students to become more productive, more aware, and more responsive to global climate change issues and how to manage sustainable development of Earth's resources. Over the last few years, the stress on natural resources has increased enormously due to anthropogenic activities especially through urbanization and industrialization processes. Sustainable development while protecting the Earth's environment involves the best possible management of natural resources, subject to the availability of reliable, accurate and timely information on regional and global scales. There is an increasing demand for an interdisciplinary approach and sound knowledge on each specific resource, as well as on the ecological and socio-economic perspectives related to their use. Geoinformatics, including Remote Sensing (RS), Geographical Information System (GIS), and Global Positioning System (GPS), is a groundbreaking and advanced technology for acquiring information required for natural resource management and addressing the concerns related to sustainable development. It offers a powerful and proficient tool for mapping, monitoring, modeling, and management of natural resources. There is, however, a lack of studies in understanding the core science and research elements of geoinformatics, as well as larger issues of scaling to use geoinformatics in sustainable development and management practices of natural resources. There is also a fundamental gap between the theoretical concepts and the operational use of these advance techniques. Sustainable Development Practices Using Geoinformatics, written by well-known academicians, experts and researchers provides answers to these problems, offering the engineer, scientist, or student the most thorough, comprehensive, and practical coverage of this subject available today, a must-have for any library.

Synopsis Spatial Information Technology for Sustainable Development Goals by : Dilip Kumar
This textbook aims to develop a scientific knowledge base on spatial information technology to communicate the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) among students, researchers, professionals and laymen. The book improves understanding of the spatial database and explains how to extract information from this for planning purposes. To enhance the knowledge of geoscientists and environmentalists, the book describes the basic fundamental concepts to advance techniques for spatial data management and analysis and discusses the methodology. The Geographic Information System (GIS), remote sensing and Global Positioning System (GPS) are presented in an integrated manner for the planning of resources and infrastructure. The management of these systems is discussed in a very lucid way to develop the reader's skills. The proper procedure for map making and spatial analysis are included along with case studies to the reader. Where the first part of the book discusses the conceptual background, the second part deals with case studies using these applications in different disciplines. The presented case studies include land use, agriculture, flood, watershed characterization and infrastructure assessment for the Sustainable Development Goals.
