[edit] INSTITUTE OF GEOINFORMATICS & REMOTE SENSING
IGRS is an independent Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing training institute, based in Kolkata
IGRS specializes in the use of these technology in Remote Sensing and Digital Image Processing activities, Public Health Services, Power & Electricity, Transportation & Tourism, Telecommunication (Including Wireless GIS), Land Records & Land Revenue, Urban Planning, Facility and Infrastructure Development, Forest and Agriculture, Travel and Tourism, Mining Application.
IGRS provides the full range of GIS services including feasibility studies, needs assessment analysis, system implementation, data conversion, spatial analysis, GIS database development and quality map production. We provide advice on the most cost-effective options for utilizing GIS technology.
Objectives of the Training Program at IGRS…….
To introduce students to the concepts and the techniques of handling geographical data through a particular form of information system – GIS; To introduce students to the skills and techniques to input, manage, analyze and display spatial information; To introduce students the concepts and techniques for spatial data analysis and modeling. To introduce students to various popular GIS softwares.
Whether your use of GIS is casual or professional, some from the education or technical training is highly recommended. GIS applies a scientific process to the tasks for which it is used. Good training will better equip you to understand that process and apply it properly.
Placement Support……
Looking at GIS in the new millennium and keeping in view the wide adoption of GIS society wide and worldwide it is inevitable that there will be a huge dearth of skilled manpower in the recent future. At IGRS we provide the requisite training so that our students can make a successful career in this upcoming industry.
Who can aspire to be a GIS professional?
Graduates from any stream (commerce, sociology, geography, history, economics, math’s, botany etc) are eligible for this career. The most important part after this is the requisite training so that the individual is capable of handling GIS software’s and analyzing them at the same time. Training, once again, is the key to a successful career.
Internet and the Indian advantage in GIS service……..
The internet facilities have turned the epicenter of this business to India due to dollar rupee differential and the huge pull of high quality manpower. Presently GIS service is the fastest growing service in India with new companies logging into the business everyday.
