Authors : Manish Kumar, R. B. Singh, Anju Singh, Ram Pravesh, Syed Irtiza Majid, Akash Tiwari

Published in: Geographic Information Systems in Urban Planning and Management

Publisher: Springer Nature Singapore

Abstract

The combined use of GIS and Remote Sensing has widespread tremendously over the last few decades. We have studied the concepts of GIS and Remote Sensing in our previous chapters. It’s very necessary to understand the practical importance of these geospatial technologies rather than having only theoretical knowledge. In this chapter, it’s attempted to present before you all the burning fields which are being controlled and monitored by these technologies. After finishing this chapter, we will be capable of understanding the following GIS and Remote Sensing applications.
  • Geographic Information Systems in Microlevel Planning
  • Geographic Information Systems in Water Resource Management
  • Geographic Information Systems in Sustainable Development
  • Geographic Information Systems in Agricultural and Natural Resource Management
  • Geographic Information Systems in Sustainable Tourism Development
  • Geographic Information Systems in Disaster Management.
