Empowering A Nation Through Mapping

Supporting National Mapping agencies across the world

GWF 2011, NMO Forum Kaushik Chakraborty Intergraph/ERDAS

The #1 Driver in Mapping CHANGE

Traditional Role of an NMO

 Support And Manage the Process of Change and its impact on the nation  Creators and keepers of spatial data, Maps, survey data, gravity data, etc Requires collecting the disparate pieces of information – – – – – – – Infrastructure Administrative boundaries Demographic information Roads Hydrography Soils Crop and Crop Yield (Ag Census)  Providing Up to date geospatial Information for Many applications – – – – – – Community Planning and Growth Management Crop forecasting Flood management Risk Assessment Disaster Response Natural Resource Management (Forest, Water and Wildlife)

GIS connecting people - Regional Governments and Public departments becoming interconnected…

NMOs Today

NMOs Provide the Foundation date which Collectively model workflows and Solve problems in Food Production, human health and demographics, water quality, transportation, economic development, etc …

The Geospatial Information Value Chain

NMOs in Asia are driving Large Scale Mapping Applications Today Accurately model the real-world by uniting geospatial, geodetic, IT and engineering technologies..



Planning – Leveraging Spatial Information

– Allow governments to implement planned, controlled growth.



Public Works - Improving Infrastructure Management

– enable government officials, engineering departments and construction companies to design, build, and manage as one group.

 

Revenue – Accurate Tax and Financial Management

– Provide the basis for tax mapping, property zoning, asset management and land-use analysis.

Cadastral Management Systems – Creating and Managing Cadastral Databases

– Define, create, edit and manage land-base information.



Homeland Security / Public Safety

– Quick, Efficient, Decision-making – Using spatial information to aid in emergency management.

NMOs And Government  Asian Challenges       As nations grow at rapid speeds, governments need to speed up the process of building/managing infrastructure and resources as well as provide better governance to citizens National & Local governments are moving to establish

e-government

. Geospatial information Is an Integral part of the good governance initiative? Therefore

NMOs carry a key role in defining and maintaining the Information foundation of e-gov and good governance

NMOs need to establish the

life cycle process

of geospatial data Creation, Information management, delivery along with data reuse, and update All this based on

standards and interoperability

-- for realization of these concepts. Standardized rules assure the maintenance of the life cycle.

The main

challenges

for NMOs in Asia are – – – – – lack of a political will to mandate geospatial data/information sharing, Limited technical knowledge within the administration/policy makers A lack of awareness of the need for standards and to avoid vendor lock-in Policy, Processes and Standards Long term planning of nations (despite 5-7 year plans)

Some Key Market Drivers

  Organizational Policy Mandates for Sharing Geographic Information – Increasing awareness that geo information must be shared across departmental silo’s in order to cut down data redundancy and costs – Boundaries between departments and agencies who need to share data are being broken down (NSDI) Increase of Airborne Sensors and growing constellation of satellite’s – More data is driving enterprise data management, delivery and on-demand geo-processing  Hardware computing power increasing and hardware costs decreasing – Lower hardware costs with increasing processing power is adding value to the ROI for deploying a geospatial enterprise system  Acceptance of web services, standards and interoperability – Geospatial market accepting web services as a mechanism to work with data alongside traditional ‘file-based’ systems  On Demand Geo-Processing (WPS Services) – – On-demand web processing allows end-users to retrieve information from data without requiring expert knowledge By allowing this there is more usability of data which creates more demand for data.

Digital Aerial Sensors & The Digital Mapping process Have Changed the Mapping Industry

Digitally match the best resolution possible with film 5-centimeter spatial resolution 1:500 / 1:1000 and lower scale mapping

-

One Mission Supplies –

High resolution B&W & color stereo pairs for engineering mapping (for 1:500 and lower scales of mapping) Natural Color Orthophotos sharpening” “with no pan Multi spectral images for Remote sensing analysis Create high resolution digital elevation models (DEM) and surface models < 10 cms accurate in Z

Benefits for NMOs

 Seeing a 5 times increase in mapping speeds with digital systems  Now focus on 1-2 year update cycles using to evaluate changes and predict changes in future ~ regional and local Planning  Seeing 2 to 3 times the utilization out of their digital sensor over film cameras  Creation of color data products now efficient and cost effective  Creation of 3D spatial databases for 3D city modeling feasible  Data Capture Once every couple of years at 5-10 cms serves different mapping scales and apps

Challenges for NMO / Our Response

    Processing and Updating 5 times Faster as More Digital data is made available from space (satellite/aerial), ground (Survey and Point cloud) Data Storage and Archiving; Data Management and Data Delivery Policies for data sharing

ERDAS/Intergraph solutions for this

– Increased efficiency in data

authoring

“processing at the speed of flight” - NG photogrammetry, cartography and generalization – – Wavelet based Data compression like ECW, JPEG2000 at the time of production ~ Up to 20 Times savings in
