PUNE Geoportal
- WGIC partner(s): IIC Technologies
- City journey step(s): Set goals and targets, Monitor and Report
- Geospatial data type(s): Geographic Information Systems
The GIS Portal for Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA) project created by IIC Technologies includes multiple components: a desktop study, establishing ground control network, capturing digital aerial photography, creating a geo-referenced land records system, developing a base map, preparing an existing land use map, building a geo-portal, and providing training and maintenance.
The project aims to improve metropolitan governance by utilizing geospatial technologies for data collection, analysis, and dissemination. These lay the foundation for an accurate geospatial data repository critical for understanding the current state of land use, natural resources, and environmental conditions. This facilitates informed decision-making on urban planning, land cover change monitoring, disaster management in case of floods and droughts, environmental protection, and climate resilience strategies.
