Geo-spatial technology could play a vital role along with information technology and space science in accelerating the economic development of Uttarakhand, Chief Minister Vijay Bahuguna today said.
Addressing a seminar here on 'Geo-Enabling Uttarakhand: Opportunities and the way forward', Bahuguna said with the help of statistics obtained from geo-spatial analysis, problems related to the environment and the economy in the ecologically-sensitive state could be resolved.
It could also play an important role in natural disaster management, urban development, land reform and many other areas including security in a border state like Uttarakhand, he said.
In his visual presentation on Geo-Spatial technique, Rajesh Mathur of FICCI Task Force said it could be vital in dealing with challenges like environmental pollution and contraction of natural resources.
