National
Spatial Data Infrastructure - 2011 (NSDI-2011)
11 - 12 January 2012
National
Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI), a division of
Department of Science and Technology, Government of India
is organizing NSDI-11 at Bengaluru during 11-12 January 2012. NSDI-11 is being organized in collaboration with
Karnataka State Council for Science & Technology (KSCST), Bengaluru.
The NSDI has come to be seen as the technology, policies,
criteria, standards and people necessary to promote
geospatial data sharing throughout all levels of
government, the private and non-profit sectors, and
academia. It provides a base or structure of practices and
relationships among data producers and users that
facilitates data sharing and use. It is a set of actions
and new ways of accessing, sharing and using geographic
data that enables far more comprehensive analysis of data
to help decision-makers choose the best course(s) of
action. Much has been accomplished in recent years to
further the implementation of the NSDI, but there is still
much to be done to achieve the vision of current and
accurate geographic data being readily available across
the country.
The conference is proposed to be inaugurated on 11th
January, 2012. This will also mark the
dedication of Karnataka Geoportal. Shri Vilasrao Deshmukh,
Hon'ble Minister of Science & Technology, Government of
India has consented to be the Chief Guest of the inaurugal
function and Shri D V Sadananda Gowda, Hon'ble Chief Minister of
Karnataka is expected to preside over the function. The
other key dignitaries likely to attend the event include
Hon'ble Secretary DST and MoES, Government of India,
Secretary from DST, Karnataka and other key officials from
IMD, NSDI, Planning Commission, NIAS, MoD, TRAI, MoUD,
Dept. of Land Records, including officials from regional

The conference is being organized at Satish Dhawan
Auditorium, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. And as part of the two-day
programme, a 90 minute special session is being organized
on the 12th January, 2012 for the Geospatial industry
to discuss policy, technology and also to showcase
products, solutions and services relevant to SDI's. With
the theme "Realizing State Spatial Data Infrastructure", NSDI 11 Forum shall deliberate upon and focus the various
aspects of Geospatial Industry in framing the SDI of
Country and provide directions to this community with
respect to emerging prospects and trends.
