2. Details of the project:
 Total project cost- Rs. 277.95 Lakhs
 Funding Organisation- Department of Industries factories and boilers cell Arunachal
Pradesh (2013) and later by North Eastern Council (2015 - 16)
 Aim- To develop comprehensive policy document and review the scenario of
industrialization, as well as to plan out a proper vision plan for the further growth and
development of industries, further suggesting emergency response measures to mitigate
industrial hazards, in case of occurrences.
 Groups affected- policy makers, Administrators, Department of Industry, Environment &
Forest, Agriculture & Horticulture, Planning & Statistics etc.

4. To check the level of vulnerability of the existing
industrial units .
To draft a comprehensive policy document on efforts to
mitigate the industrial hazards .
To draft new vision document for the newly coming up
industrial plazas or production centers keeping in mind
the increasing wave of eco-based production units, human
rights phenomena etc.

6. For Example:
The mine industries that needs an attentive monitoring due being one of the
important expensive assets around the globe which is improved from GIS
applications.

7. Traditional on –site or aerial methods Earth –observation satellite methods

8. Satellite imagery to assist in monitoring illegal mining activities

9. Traditional on –site or aerial methods VS Earth –observation Satellite Imagery
Traditional on –site or aerial methods
1. Monitoring and assessing mine hazards costly and inefficient.
2. Mine are often far removed from civilized and populated areas and the logistics of on-site or aerial
surveillance can be onerous.
Earth –observation satellite methods
1. High resolution data
- complements the on-site efforts of mine operators to improve environmental conditions at their
mine sites
- the information utility value of the data that can be introduced into a variety of geographic, mining,
and government system in the form of maps, iS data layers, reports, images, and presentation
- used for internal business and operational decision and due diligence activities requiring
confidentiality and discretion
2. Data collected
- quickly
- routinely
- reliably
- has real meaning to end users
2. Cost-effective (e.g. large areas can be monitored remotely avoiding high logistics costs)
3. Easily interpreted
4. Suitable for long-term monitoring
5. Social benefits (influence that environmental and community groups have made on government
policy, influence that environmental and community groups have made on government policy)

10. Conclusion
Mine sites can be monitored on either an adhoc or a regular basis to meet security and operational
need. And, considering mine rehabilitation is an activity that can last decades, mine operators will
be able to use routine satellite monitoring to assure government agencies and the public that the
mine rehabilitation programs and plans are being implemented to meet regulatory and
environmental mandates. The cliché that a” pictures is worth a thousand words” appropriately
summarizes the value of high-resolution imagery to all stakeholders.
