History

North-Eastern Space Applications Centre was set up with a joint initiative of Department of Space and North Eastern Council in September, 2000 at Shillong in Meghalaya, India. The centre has been declared a protected area by the state government.[2]

Objectives

The objective of NESAC is to search and utilize the natural resources present in the region using remote sensing, provide the North-Eastern states access to satellite services, and promote research in the space technology in the region by tying up with the academic institutions in the region.[3][4]

Programmes

The centre presently focuses on Remote sensing and Geographic information systems, a satellite communication programme and space science research programmes

Facilities

The centre is equipped with modern GIS software like Erdas, Geomatica, eCognition, ESRI ArcGIS, and the like. Its equipment includes:

  • Digital Photogrammetry Work Stations
  • A0 size Colour Scanner
  • High Quality printers and plotters
  • Leica Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS)
  • Visual Interpretation facilities
  • Spectroradiometer
  • UV-Visible Spectro-photometer, Flame Photometer
  • Echo-Sounder
  • Plant Canopy Imager[5]

Projects

It has undertaken projects on the land mapping of North-Eastern States on 1:50,000 scale, and wasteland and wetland monitoring. It developed the FLEWS or Flood Early Warning System for the areas which are likely to be the worst affected by floods.[6] It also developed touch input-based information kiosks to provide information about the state of Meghalaya.[7][8]
