SP1 Governance and Institutions

SP4 Data This example highlights the governance system established to leverage geospatial information from the central government to the local self-government level of Indian democracy. It establishes a clear value proposition of geospatial information at the grassroots level and a governance model for the same. The mission revolves around the State Remote Sensing Application Centres (SRSACs) taking a lead role with the central agencies like ISRO/DOS acting as enablers of the mission by providing necessary infrastructure, technology, expertise, technical support, interfacing with state governments etc. required by the mission. ISRO leverages its rich geospatial information infrastructure to support the SISDP. The geospatial information curation, maintenance and dissemination protocols are clearly defined.

SP6 Standards

SP7 Partnerships SISDP standards are prepared in line with NNRMS-2005 standards as base ensuring technical interoperability. SISDP project is carried out under the aegis of the National Natural Resources Management System (NNRMS) programme of ISRO in partnership with the State Remote Sensing Centres and a few academic institutions for the generation of thematic database.

SP8 Capacity and Education The programme develops and strengthens capacity building & training of PRIs & stakeholders in the use of the SISDP database in decentralized planning and governance. Capacity-building programmes were also conducted as a part of Empowering Panchayati Raj Institutes Spatially (EPRIS) for the elected panchayat representatives for the utilization of the database.
