MAJOR PROJECTS EXECUTED

Village Information System


The objective of this project was to develop an information system for 10 villages situated in Faridabad Block of Faridabad District (Haryana) with the help of GIS and GPS technologies. Mapping of each village was done on 1:1000 scale using GPS survey and cadastral maps. Extensive Field Survey was conducted for the collection of attributes related information and marking of facilities as waypoints as per the village information data model. And later on a decision support system was generated with the help of a customized GIS engine that can be supportable for the planners and decision makers to retrieve the information by integrating the spatial and non-spatial data for that area. With the help of this system planners and decision makers can get spatial and non-spatial data for optimal interpretation.

Forest/Vegitational Change Detection for Garwa South Forest Division (Jharkhand)

The processing of satellite imagery and its analysis in GIS has provided a useful method for assessing Vegetation Change Detection. In this project change detection study has been done on the forest of Garwa Range using the latest technology of Remote Sensing and GIS. This study has been done using Remote Sensing data IRS 1C LISS- III, IRS 1C PAN, and SOI topographic sheets surveyed in 1978-79, Forest Division map provided by forest department, and village revenue (mussavis) maps. Finally using all these data and doing change detection analysis through overlay of thematic maps and filtering out the zones of forest degradation it was found out that there is a change in vegetation area in the forest.

Hence, we had been appointed by various Govt. and private agencies to resolve the issue of land demarcation. The list covers:

The modern tools and technology i.e. Drones, DGPS and GIS platforms are being used and villages of whole India are to be mapped. The processing is in continuation and Geo Solutions feels privileged to be part of this project and continuously working for project areas. Currently, we are working at the villages of Municipal Council Sohna, Gurugram.

The scheme aims to provide an integrated property validation solution for rural India. The demarcation of rural abadi areas would be done using Drone Surveying technology. This would provide the ‘record of rights’ to village household owners possessing houses in inhabited rural areas in villages which, in turn, would enable them to use their property as a financial asset for taking loans and other financial benefits from Bank
