The convergence of GIS and internet has changed the map making a cost-effective way to share or provide public access to geo-informatics worldwide. Internet has changed shaken the traditional approach and has brought paradigm shift in the process of thinking and societal interactions based on technological development. For preparation of local level plans and functioning, it is becoming increasingly essential to have decentralized database and Web-based GIS functions for local or decentralized planning. The datasets contain all geospatial database created for integrated rural development of Bemetara district of Chhattisgarh state. These datasets contain two types of data spatial and attribute data of all concerned lined departments. Geospatial layers used as dataset for creation of web based Decision Support System. Web materials used in generating Web Based Decision Support System are Database Language, Open Source Server For Sharing Geospatial Data, PHP Framework, Application Programming Interface, Application Programming Interface. The overall methodology followed in making Decision Support System is that all the necessary information may be accessed from one computer. The citizens interested in all the information about a particular location can find out everything he needs from one source. Organizing and constructing the above files approved to run the proposed web based GIS system. Application running has been done by using the common web browser such as Google Chrome. Web map on the WWW is both served and consumed. Web based GIS emphasis geodata processing aspects more involved with design aspects such as data acquisition and server software architecture such as data storage and algorithms. Open source software that provides web map services capability is Geoserver. Proprietary standalone that is client side software that allow viewing web map services include GOOGLE EARTH. In this research open source software that supports WMS include Open Layers. Rapid progress of internet with combination of GIS has paved the ways for web distribution of spatial data. Online accessibility of thematic maps will provide a clear picture of any attribute, as it would help the planners associate various parameters together to examine the effect of any plan and to effectively monitor the utilization of funds. Sustainable development can be result of successful integration of spatial and aspatial data and implementation of Web GIS applications with proper planning at the local levels.
Recent Trends in GIS Applications
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2015
A geographic information system is a system designed to capture, store, manipulate, analyze, manage, and present all types of geographic data. A GIS can be thought of as a system that provides spatial data entry, management, and retrieval, analysis, and visualization functions. The implementation of a GIS is often driven by jurisdictional (such as a city), purpose, or application requirements. Generally, a GIS implementation may be custom-designed for an organization. Each and every phase of infrastructure life cycle is generally affected and enhanced by the enrollment of GIS.A Geographic Information System (GIS) having 70 layers was developed with technical help from Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) through Regional Remote Sensing Centre (RRSSC), Nagpur. Using satellite data, natural resource mapping has been carried out on 1:50,000 scales based on satellite imageries and digital processing.The Chhattisgarh Infotech and biotech Promotion Society (CHIPS) has adopted a planned approach for the implementation of "Chhattisgarh GIS Project". The following key persons were involved in the successful implementation of the project.
The definition of LIS (Land Information System) implies that the spatially referenced land data stored in the database should be related to its ground location. In the Indian context of information system for sustainable development, the obvious choice of geographical location is the land parcel available in cadastral records. It is both easily locatable on a map and described in legal records. Such a land information system generated from the cadastral surveys will provide the information base for village level or micro level planning. The LIS will comprise of graphic elements derived from cadastral maps and nongraphic attribute data obtained from cadastral records suitably supplemented with additional information useful for planning purposes. In India, rapid urbanization is resulted due to the unprecedented population growth coupled with unplanned developmental activities. The city of Guwahati in India provides a typical case of haphazard and unplanned urbanization. Due to the unplanned growth of the city both in horizontal and vertical directions, there is a need for proper planning for the careful handling of this alarming situation. In this study an integrated remote sensing and GIS based methodology is developed and successfully tested by generating an up to date digital database. Finally a Land Information System (LIS) is designed for the city development authorities in web supported format.

An attempt has been made to develop Rishikesh Urban Information System (RUIS) with this concern in mind so that efforts made during data collection and acquisition of latest data on resources available in the Rishikesh township and its environs can be used by the administrators, town planners, tourists and even common man to locate and appraise of the areas of their interest. The study of Rishikesh township and its environs carried out in this work would be useful in formulating developmental planning strategies in the area, as the spatial and attribute information about various utilities-facilities and geoenvironmental parameters is available in a georeferenced GIS mode. RUIS is a GIS based application system that amalgamates Visual Basic .Net, ESRI MAP OBJECT 2.0, and Microsoft Access. This system allows linkage of spatial and attributes data with suitable visual display of both the data types. RUIS supports on screen map viewing with attribute information to provide meaningful insights into the geo-aspects of the region for updating the knowledge of planners and tourists interested in this area. Anyone can easily access it anytime, anywhere by using internet.
DEVELOPMENT OF BIODIVERSITY INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR NORTH EAST INDIA USING INTERNET GIS
2002
Conservation of Biological Diversity will be major challenge for the ecologist in the forthcoming century. In-situ conservation, biotechnology tools for conservation and prospecting, understanding genetic variability, species habitat relationship and allowing evolutionary process of speciation are some of the challenges. India is one of the mega biodiversity centers and is also known for its traditional knowledge of conservation. The varied regions of the country, with unique floristic and faunal richness, their vastness, endemism, heterogeneity and also inaccessibility of large areas have necessitated creation of authentic baseline data on biodiversity. This information system is essential to monitor, analyze and plan action oriented programs for conserving and preserving our biological wealth. North Eastern India is one of the three mega diversity hotspots in the country. The region is referred as a cradle of flowering plants as it lies in the region of conjunction of biogeographical zones of India viz. Indo-China, Indo-Malayan and Gondwana land masses. The spatial characterization of landscape structures and its linkage with attribute information on the floristic composition, economic valuation, endemism has been developed in the form of Biodiversity Information System (BIS) on sharable environment. The BIS is integration of large databases using a concept of Internet based Geographical Information System commonly known as Internet GIS. The development of BIS involves the basic framework of concept, selection, and aggregation of fundamental and processed data. The information generated as a part of project entitled "Biodiversity Characterization at Landscape Level using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System" of the Department of Biotechnology and the Department of Space, Government of India has information on vegetation type/ land use, disturbance regimes, biological richness, ancillary information from different sources and non spatial attribute database on plant species (field sample and flora). The database has been organized under the sharable framework with metadata, quality evaluation procedures and their standardization. The different database structure created on different formats/platforms comes as an input to the information system for standardization that is they are converted into the same format. The non-spatial species database is converted into a relational database structure and the geospatial data is converted to a uniform spatial projection. The conversion of data from the various available formats also constituted reverse engineering of the databases using Visual Basic, Oracle and the database format software and Open Data Base Connectivity (ODBC). The web enabling part comes through uploading the entire spatial and the non-spatial data at a common platform using the concept of Internet GIS. We use ArcSDE, ArcInfo, Oracle at the backend, ArcIMS as the Internet Map Server and Microsoft Internet Information Server 4.0 as the web server.

Indian cities are experiencing an increasing use of utilities. As a matter of fact there is a wide gap between the utility availability and need for the utilities, which is reportedly due to the perennial influx of rural population to urban center. As a result the existing infrastructure gets burdened. Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) in India, growing at a very fast rate, acquired a complex urban structure over the years. The central part or the core has gone through unusual changes in terms of social and physical transformations. Geographical Information system (GIS) is one of the most efficient ways to get the hypothetical view of any object or phenomena on the earth's surface similar to the actual situation. Remote sensing (RS) technique is an effective tool for identifying the urban growth pattern from the spatial and temporal data. Here an attempt has been made to understand the urban infrastructure using GIS and Remote Sensing. The precise aim of this present study is to find out the pattern of utilities and which reason is responsible for lack of utilities and with the help of Remote Sensing, GPS and GIS to suggest a solution and how to manage utilities for the increasing population. The satellite data and Survey of India (SOI) toposheets were used to map the utilities of Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC). Ward wise population and data like Ambulance, Blood Bank, Education Sector, Hospital, and road network data were collected and analyzed in order to identify areas high amenities and areas lacking in amenities. Urban growth has transformed most of the agricultural land of PMC into industrial, commercial and residential area
