Resources Industries

Managing resources in an effective & efficient manner

Geospatial data is effective in the analysis and determination of factors that affect the utilization of resources.

With the understanding of these factors, sound decisions can be arrived at, that will ensure sustainable use of natural resources to meet the needs of the present generation as well as future generations.

Some of the key resource sectors are:

  • Agriculture
  • Conservation
  • Forestry
  • Water resources
  • Environmental management
  • Mining
  • Oil & Gas

Some of the key applications are:

  • In natural resource management, remote sensing and GIS is mainly used in the mapping process. These technologies can be used to develop a variety of maps. Examples include:
• Vegetation / crop patterns / soil maps
• Forestry - Types of forests present within the area of the study, human encroachment into forest land and protected areas
• Water bodies such as rivers, lakes, dams and reservoirs can be mapped and flood zones can be identified
• Assisting emergency response teams by helping prevent or manage any potential loss of containment of dangerous substances from industrial plants, disaster management, flood mapping and more
• Site suitability analysis, mapping to identify potential mineral zones, structural feature detection, geological database creation for mineral exploration, contouring, geo-referencing of topographical and physio-graphical mapping
