Implementation of Geographic Information

System for Nagpur Improvement Trust

(NIT) – NMRDA

Introduction

Nagpur Improvement Trust (NIT), is a local civic government body
with the task of developing new areas within city limits
of Nagpur, maintaining existing city infrastructure and works along
with Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC). With recent development in
Urban sector in Remote Sensing and GIS fields, NIT has proposed to
Implement complete GIS solution for comprehensive planning, decision
making support and to provide accurate information to general public for
the areas under its jurisdiction. The study is aimed at generating a geo-
spatial data of detailed urban land use land cover data showing all the
details of existing structures on the sites and other site features duly
superimposed on city cadastral data of Nagpur.
Under this project NIT intends to generate the geo-spatial data which
would be helpful for the stakeholders’ planners and designers in decision
making. Realizing this, NIT has approached and requested Maharashtra
Remote Sensing Applications Centre (MRSAC) Nagpur, an autonomous
body under Planning Department, Government of Maharashtra, to generate
the Remote Sensing and GIS database for the agency.

Objectives

The aim and objective of the project are as follows:
1. Creation of Geo-Spatial database of NIT, Nagpur using:
a) High Resolution Satellite data.
b) Maps available with NIT, Nagpur on 1:5000 scale or larger.
c) City Survey Maps for base map and land use map on 1:5000
scale or larger.
d) Maps for NIT owned properties.
e) Maps for development works carried out by NIT.
f) Engineering data maps for Sewarage, Water Pipeline, Storm
Water Line, High tension lines, and Electric lines.
2. Design and development of the standards for Geo-Spatial database
for Nagpur Improvement Trust (NIT), Nagpur in GIS environment.
