GIS Data Conversion

The increasing role of spatial information has contributed to an ever-increasing set of standards and range of data formats for use. Different computer systems employ source data in dissimilar formats. With Dr. Design India’s leading data conversion software, data interoperability is no longer a tedious job.

Incompatible data formats can be a big challenge when migrating data across applications, this includes data that is non-digital (paper maps and other similar sources) and digital but in a different format. Our experienced team takes care of both these needs.

With the help of efficient software, analog data in the form of maps, reports and charts is scanned, manually digitized and converted into a standard GIS format. Non-traditional GIS data, such as satellite imagery, orthophotographs and digital terrain data which is often tedious to combine with GIS systems but yet is of an enormous value is seamlessly converted to an acceptable format that can be rendered by most common tools.

The findings are laid out in the form of a master plan that would guide the development of the city for years to follow.

GIS MIS Integration

An enterprise cannot function effectively if an optimal flow/exchange of information is missing. This is where MIS comes to rescue. Management Information Systems facilitate operation of crucial data repositories that hold data of significant business value. This data can be used by groups, divisions or departments within the enterprise based on business requirements, or for knowledge sharing and use of best practices in general.

Integrating GIS with MIS takes ICT to the next level. There is no questioning the significance of geo-spatial data for businesses today. Location can be an important variable in understanding trends and tracking real time data.

Moreover, it has enormous value for lines that require monitoring of territories and analyzing trends. For instance, a forest department might wish to track and analyze details such as forest fires, encroachment, animal injury, man-animal conflict and more- all in real time. This can be made possible with the aid of GIS enabled smart phones or portable devices to track the location and a GIS-MIS System to view, track and analyze the findings.
