DATA CENTRES

  • Water Resources Department mainly responsible for planning, design, construction, operation or regulation of dams, flood protection schemes, and collection and management of Hydrometeorological spatial data for ascertaining the water accountability of each river basin.

  • Perception of “Spatial” information – information in map format, with proper scales, legends, symbolization, colors, etc. enhance the understanding of “information inter-relationship” and thus contribute to a more appropriate locale – specific development strategy definition.
  • The huge amount of historical Hydrometeorological (water related) data sets are available though mainly analog and in paper- map form rather than digital data sets. The necessity of development of spatial data infrastructure information system by using new technology have been realized by the department in late 90’s, the awareness and utilization of GIS technology and power of spatial information system – specially oriented towards decision- making or resource management is growing rapidly in the country. Over the past few years, i.e. from 1995-96 onwards the department has invested considerably in establishing GIS databases with help of World Bank Assisted HYDROLOGY PROJECT.
