One-day workshop on ‘DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION OF URBAN GOVERNANCE USING GIS’

The application of GIS as a science has pervaded every aspect of human existence. All support systems used by Government agencies have a component of GIS since the knowledge and intelligence gathered from location data is critical to good decision-making. We understand the huge impact of GIS can have in realizing our dream of a DIGITAL INDIA and that could contribute to comprehensive development with social justice. In this context, we are delighted to announce a one-day workshop on ‘DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION OF URBAN GOVERNANCE USING GIS’ at IIIC on Monday 23rd January 2023 from 9.00AM to 4.30PM.
