🌐 Role of GIS in Hingoli’s Development
Here are key areas where GIS and Remote Sensing can make strong impact in Hingoli:
Agriculture: monitoring crops such as soybean, cotton, pulses, jowar, groundnut and optimizing crop planning. NABARD+2Indiastat Districts+2
Orchard development: fruit orchards are being established in many hectares as part of schemes (e.g. mango, guava, pomegranate etc.), GIS can help in site selection, health monitoring, yield estimation. Free Press Journal
Water resource and irrigation management: as only a fraction of land is irrigated and rainfall fluctuates, hydrological modelling, watershed analysis, dam and reservoir monitoring can be of use. NABARD+2Veethi+2
Land Use / Land Cover (LULC) change detection, soil health mapping, rainfall / drought management. Indian Council of Agricultural Research+2Veethi+2
Environmental monitoring including forest patches, river courses (e.g. Kayadhu, Purna, Painganga), flood risk, erosion. gsda.maharashtra.gov.in+2Veethi+2
