Advance Your Career with GIS and Remote Sensing Skills in Dhule
Dhule — a district in the north-western part of Maharashtra, located in the Nashik division, facing particular challenges and opportunities in agriculture, land‐use, water resource management and development planning. The GIS course in Dhule by Space Borne Maharashtra is designed to equip learners with practical skills in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing, tailored to the region’s reality of soil degradation, rain-fed agriculture and terrain complexity.
Whether you are a student, researcher, or working professional, this course helps you master spatial data handling, mapping techniques, and real-world geospatial applications shaped by Dhule’s local development context.
🌐 Role of GIS in Dhule’s Development
Dhule district has several unique conditions where GIS/Remote Sensing become highly valuable:
A large proportion of Dhule’s land is affected by soil degradation and erosion: over 64% of the area is under land‐degradation or desertification risk. Down To Earth+1
Agriculture in Dhule is heavily rain‐fed, with limited irrigation infrastructure, making monitoring of watershed, terrain and soil moisture critical for planning. Wikipedia
Studies in Dhule have applied GIS/Remote Sensing e.g., mapping soil micronutrient status in Ajang village in Dhule taluka using GPS/GIS. phytojournal.com
Watershed analysis using GIS/Remote Sensing has been done in Dhule—for example the Panjhara River basin in Dhule taluka. bpasjournals.com
Land and terrain information is geologically complex: Dhule lies largely on Deccan Trap basalt terrain (~93%) with shallow soils in many parts, making spatial analysis important for land‐use planning. gsda.maharashtra.gov.in+1
By learning GIS and Remote Sensing, participants can contribute to sustainable agriculture, land‐management, water and watershed planning, erosion control, and local infrastructure projects in Dhule.
