Abstract: Geospatial
technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographical
Information Systems (GIS) have been widely used in land
resources survey and environmental monitoring.
Assessment and monitoring of natural resources like
land, soil, water and vegetation and socio-economic
conditions and integrating them in a spatial information
platform like GIS will facilitate the effective
management of land resources. In the present study, an
attempt has been made to develop spatial information
system of Udupi district of coastal Karnataka by an
integrated approach using Remote Sensing, GPS and other
ancillary data on GIS. Indian Remote Sensing satellites
IRS-1C/IRS-1D images are analysed using visual and
digital interpretation techniques. The data generated
are the base line data which are useful for the
planning, development and management of natural
resources and infrastructure development of this
district.
