In the recent years, the advances in geographic information sciences (GISc) and the availability of satellite remote sensing data has enabled the scientific community to use these for a variety of studies concerning development and even aiding at times of d isaster. The tools of GIS and satellite remote sensing data are very useful in mapping natural resources and urban growth, while characterizing and monitoring land-use and land cover change.
Leveraging the potentials, Gubbi Labs has worked on the following projects:
- Geospatial database for a protected area
- Crop Area Estimation using Remote Sensing
- Land-use Land Cover Change Analysis for Urban Areas
- Geovisualization of Public Health System Data
- Assessment of biomass potential for power generation and evaluating optimal sites for location of decentralized biomass powered plants within Gubbi taluk
- Web-GIS app to visualize GPX tracks
- Spatial Planning Support Systems for Towns and Cities
