Agenda for Panel Discussion
● Mapping policies in the country
● Experience using GIS technology and collecting
data
● How can OpenStreetMap be useful

3. © KSRSAC – KGIS SOTM – Asia 2017
Various Policies – related to Geospatial
• National Map Policy (NMP) in 2005 (Open Series and defense use)
• SoI mandated for bringing openness to data – Datum / Projection
• The Remote Sensing Data Policy 2011
• NRSC – authorised single point of sale of all RS data
• Data Sharing and accessibility Policy (GSI)
• Specific to GSI’s map sharing policy
• The National Data Sharing and Accessibility Policy, 2012
• State Govt Policies / Act
• Delhi, Karntaka,…
● Digital India

Use of Geospatial Tech in Disaster
● Technologies & Platform - Solution
◦ GIS / GPS / LIDAR / Cameras & Sensors (remote / monitoring)
◦ Satellite / Aerial / Drone / Mobile Platforms
◦ Solution - Processes – Models – Warning Systems
● Disaster
◦ Flood – Cyclone – Landslides – Earthquake – Drought – Act of Terror
/ Violence – FATAL Events - Tsunami
● Pre disaster Map
● Rescue and Planning operation with existing maps
● Post Disaster Assessment
◦ Map / visualisation using Remote Sensing data
◦ Change Detection / Analysis
◦ Mitigation Plan
Reason – Research – Prevent / Prepare

5. © KSRSAC – KGIS SOTM – Asia 2017
Suggestion for Governance
● Unified Framework – CORS GPS stations
◦ Seamless HR Satellite mosaic - Avoids accuracy issues
● Identify Ownership
◦ Avoid duplication and redundancy
● Mandate data updation
● One portal for all
● De-centralised data / Distributed Storage
● Single Gateway
◦ For all Data sources
◦ Tools for Mapping / Updation
◦ Customised / theme Specific Applications
◦ Generic Queries and Tools
◦ Open Platform for development / hosting

Current Gaps and KGIS Needs
● Lack of integrated data between various departments
● Lack of spatial data availability in various dept
● Few Dept only have their own GIS teams
● Lack of expertise of GIS specialists and analysts
● DSS based on spatial data and trends is the requirement
● Existing Spatial Data - not in common coordinate reference frame
● Lack of GIS Applications and DSS for operational needs
● Non clarity in data sharing policy between dept and public

8. © KSRSAC – KGIS SOTM – Asia 2017
A flagship Project of GoK, to Institutionalize the use of Geospatial in the
Governance
Karnataka GIS (K-GIS)
Objectives
● To establish the state needs for robust information and GIS based
decision support systems and also focus to ensure continued
availability of GIS ready data assets and applications.
● To bring all the GIS data available in various departments under one
single seamless spatial framework.
● To help the departmental users with GIS data and advanced tools for
GIS analysis through simpler web and mobile interfaces system with an
executive dashboard and other business workflows

Expected Benefits
● Make GIS data available at all levels
● Geo-enabling e-governance and public services by
embedding GIS in all aspects of planning and development
at state/district/panchayat levels;
● Bringing transparency and geo-spatial information support
in decision-making;
● Citizen services by giving access to geospatial information;
● Enabling a “crowd-sourced” interactive process of citizen
involvement in providing feed-back/inputs/data
● Enable a sound process of monitoring and identifying “gaps
in development”;
● To make the state to be in the forefront of this field of
technology and applications that that are fast growing
globally.
● Also to make Karnataka GIS to be major contributor towards
establishment of National GIS

Discussion – Views and Thoughts
Policy Consideration
• Many data generation
agencies
• Different types of datas –
thematic, small / Large
Scale
• Ownership –of data
Duplication and authenticity
• Accuracy - CORS Network
• HR resolution data for whom
and why
• Public money – public data –
share it – Open data is not
necessary to be a free data
• Security concerns / Privacy
• Expose the availability of
data - metadata
• Correctness and validation
• Standards & interoperability
• Data Sharing Policy
• Data Updation Policy
Requirements for OSM to be
used
• OSM as institution should get
engaged with Govt – not as
freelance individuals.
• Create data in government
portals
• OSM data to be available and
updated in the government
portals
• The published data from
government portals can be
used in OSM portals
• Validate the data through
authoritative agencies
• Involve Departments to be part
of Mapping activity.
Way Forward
Should work towards developing open Map Solutions
Develop business models – free data – paid service for unique solution -
Collaboration with Agencies having copyright information
Let’s Discuss…..THANK YOU
How OSM can be useful
• As a Planning and Decision
support tool for governance
• Apart from mapping the
features and assets, themes
should be generated
• Citizen specific requirements
• Let OSM Community
develop solution and provide
services
• Crowd sourcing data within
govt depts is already being
valued.
• Govt can provide incentives
