Geospatial Technologies for Urban Planning
Sixteenth IIRS
Outreach Programme
Sponsored by
National Natural Resources Management System (NNRMS)
Indian Institute of Remote Sensing (IIRS) under Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), Department of Space, Govt. of India is a premier Training and Educational Institute set up for developing trained professionals in the field of Remote Sensing, Geoinformatics and GNSS Technology for Natural Resources, Environmental and Disaster Management. Formerly known as Indian Photo-interpretation Institute (IPI), founded in 1966, the Institute boasts to be the first of its kind in entire South-East Asia. While nurturing its primary endeavour to build capacity among the user community by training mid-career professionals, the Institute has enhanced its capability and evolved many training and education programmes that are tuned to meet the requirements of various target groups, ranging from fresh graduates to policy makers including academia.
IIRS also conducts e-learning programme on Remote Sensing and Geoinformation Science (http://elearning.iirs.gov.in).Over 2,000 participants have registered for the course.

The IIRS outreach programme, which started in 2007 with 12 universities/ institutions has now grown substantially. Currently, 303 universities / institutions spread across India covering 30 States and 2 Union Territories are networked with IIRS. The beneficiaries of the programme may include:
?Urban Planning Bodies / Agencies in India?Civil Engineers?Architects and other Planning Professionals?Central / State/Private Universities & Academic Institutions?Central & State Government Organisations / Departments?Research Institutes?Geospatial Industries?NGOs
IIRS has conducted six workshops in 2007, 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014 and 2015 to take feedback from participating institutions to improve the quality of future courses.
IIRS has received national awards for excellence in training for stoutreach and e-learning programme during 1 National
Symposium on Excellence in Training conducted during April 11-12, 2015 in New Delhi by Department of Personnel & Training (DoPT), Govt. of India in collaboration with United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).

The Indian cities are experiencing rapid growth with share of
country’s urban population increasing from 27% in 2001 to 32% in
2011. Majority of this growth has taken place in an unplanned and
haphazard manner, the ill-effects of which are manifested in the
form of poor quality of life mainly due to lack of urban
infrastructure and increasing vulnerability of urban population to
various natural and manmade hazards. One of the major reasons
for this unsustainable growth has been the lack of up-to-date and
accurate spatial data on which urban planners can base their
plans. Geospatial technologies pave way to these planning
problems, as they offer accurate and timely spatial data at
affordable cost. To enhance the awareness on Geospatial
technologies, we have designed 16th IIRS Outreach Programme
on “Geospatial Technologies for Urban Planning”. The course is
scheduled from 11 February – 15 March 2016. The course will
contain 4/5 lectures per week (each of one and half hour
duration).
IIRS has successfully conducted 15 such courses so far with
participation of over 24,800 students from 303 Institutions/
Universities spread across India.
?Overview of Remote Sensing and GIS for Urban Planning;
?Introduction to GNSS;
?Urban/Regional Features Extraction using remote sensing
data;
?GIS concepts and Spatial Database for Urban Planning;
?Urban Planning: Challenges & Opportunities in present
context;
?Base Map and Cadastral Mapping ;
?Urban Land Use / Land Cover Classification;
?Introduction to Bhuvan Portal;
?Open Source Tools & Datasets for Urban Planning;
?National Urban Information System and Bhuvan-NUIS-;
?Crowdsourcing and Mobile Apps for Citizen-centric
services;
Remote Sensing and GIS:
Urban Planning Applications
The course is designed for Professionals engaged in Urban &
Regional Planning, students & researchers of Urban & Regional
Planning, Geography, Environmental studies, Civil Engineering
and Architecture.
The course participants have to be duly sponsored by their
university / institution and application should forwarded through
coordinators from respective Organisations / Centres. Users
attending programmes under CEC-UGC/ CIET / other networks
can also participate. Institutions on high speed National
Knowledge Network (NKN) can also participate using A-VIEW
software.
Course study materials like lecture slides, video recorded
lectures, open source software & handouts of demonstrations,
etc. will be made available through IIRS ftp link. Video
lectures will also be uploaded on YouTube Channel
(http://www.youtube.com/user/edusat2004).
There is no course fee for attending this programme.
Course updates and other details will be available on URL-
http://www.iirs.gov.in/Edusat-News/. All the participants has to
register online through registration page available on above web
page.
