The future lies in adopting the geospatial way, and it is the most efficient and effective way to collect, process, integrate, and utilize information for overall global, national, and individual development. But, concentrating only on data would not suffice, and it is imperative to move up the value chain from data to knowledge through Geospatial Knowledge Infrastructure (GKI).
GKI embodies a concept that champions the evolution of a nation's geospatial ecosystem along the value chain towards knowledge, diverging from the current emphasis on data infrastructures towards the establishment of knowledge infrastructures. National geospatial infrastructures, oriented towards knowledge, serve as structures empowering countries to ascend the knowledge value chain. These infrastructures are essential for national development, and they require partnerships, knowledge sharing, and capacity building to be successful. Countries can adopt it by investing in developing a positive and collaborative approach, including government to government, government to private, government to funding agencies, academia, and research institutes.
The adoption and integration of geospatial knowledge in critical economic sectors is crucial for national development. GKI plays a significant role in this regard by integrating geospatial approaches, data, and technologies to deliver location-based knowledge, services, and solutions. By incorporating geospatial knowledge into user workflows, the potential impact on sectoral growth and development becomes evident.
The three-day training programme on ‘Geospatial knowledge infrastructure (GKI) for national development’ will address crucial questions on the growth trajectory of geospatial knowledge, the influence of new-age technology ecosystems, including AI, Big Data Analytics, Cloud Computing, Robotics and Drones on user segments, and the role and relevance of the paradigm shift from data to knowledge in national development. It will also help NGAs to improve their data management capabilities by enhancing their understanding of geospatial infrastructure, promoting data sharing and interoperability, increasing efficiency, enabling better decision-making, fostering collaboration and cooperation, and adapting to new technologies.
