The task of identifying treatment of area and locating the suitable sites is undertaken along with peoples' participation.
Remote sensing interpretation: Visual and digital interpretation of remote sensing products is also carried out by the Cell. Thematic maps are prepared based upon the images, and are converted into the digital form for analyses and other GIS related works.
Map preparation: The task of thematic map generation is performed by the Cell. By linking the area information and details to the location map, presentable maps containing these features are prepared. Quality maps are generated for various natural resources and socio-economic details.
