Geographic Information Systems GIS is a tool mainly used to gather, analyse, and interpret data captured during the remote sensing process.
It is applicable in different sectors where it is used by professional analysts to analyse data for different uses.
Housing is one of the basic needs of humans along with food and water. A good shelter should protect the person in it from unfavourable weather conditions all year round.
Apart from natural disasters which occur occasionally, shelters should be able to withstand most conditions.
Even in cases of natural disasters, GIS has been known to help rescue efforts and help detect the best place to settle to prevent reoccurrences.
One of the main applications of GIS use in the housing sector has been in the area of dealing with environmental hazards such as floods, landslides, soil erosion, and drought. It is not possible to stop these events but GIS can be used to mitigate or decrease their impact
- GIS aids effective land administration, providing the platform for structured housing and land management.
- GIS can help individuals and businesses protect property rights, encourage open and competitive real estate markets, bring efficiencies in land administration (SDI, government, taxation, land consolidation etc)
- GIS aids in Land Use Classification and planning.
- GIS aids in the creation and management of Creation of address registers in partnership with local government areas, for easy analysis and upgrade of community database and mapping.
- Besides mapping areas in real estate, GIS can also play an important role in spatial analysis and determination of the absolute location where houses need to be situated.
- GIS Makes Performing Market Analysis Better: Market analysis is one of the most essential steps in housing. Research needed for each may differ in depth, but both require analyzing comparative sales in a given location. Prior to analysis, additional research is conducted on comparable properties recently developed in the subject property’s area.
- GIS enables tasks including site selection, land suitability analysis, land use and transport modelling, the identification of planning action areas, and impact assessments.

It’s usually a delight to enjoy steady electricity for the daily running of businesses and incorporating remote sensing for accurate transmission lines is a head start. The best efficient way we tackle this at Geoinfotech is to effectively monitor and maintain power lines to remotely regulate the voltage right at your load.
We do not only use remote sensing and GIS to create up-to-date databases but incorporate their usefulness for network analysis, facility management, energy audit, trouble call management, load management, theft detection, and so forth.
We notice over time that inspection is achieved smoothly by incorporating remote sensing for accurate transmission lines. Enabling, power holding companies take preemptive steps to safely and accurately identify fault points of a country’s critical infrastructure.
During power line surveys we offer power shift inspection purposes, usually different from the regular traditional maintenance to provide interesting alternatives.
Remote sensing: This technological advancement, makes room for measuring the physical properties of a geographical area with the absence of a human presence. Users are able to capture and interpret the electromagnetic radiation from the Earth’s surface using reflected or emitted energy collected by sensors mounted on satellites, aircraft, or drones.
The different sources of remote sensing data we make use of at Geoinfotech include:
- multispectral
- optical
- IR measurements
- satellite imagery
- synthetic-aperture radar (SAR)
- light detection and ranging (LiDAR).
The following attributes determine the quality of remote sensing data:
- spatial resolution
- sensor footprint
- sampling rate,
- dwell rate,
- the spectral resolution, and
- signal-to-noise (SIN) ratio.
The benefits of 3D Remote Sensing over Traditional Method for Power Transmission lines
- High level of accuracy using mapping technique, particularly to extreme weather conditions
- Time efficiency is assured and low-risk methodology
- It is cheap to run in the long-run
- Wide area scanning is carried out with consistent precision
- Streamlines the planning activities for power lines inspection and expansion
- It establishes safety norms that reduce the percentage of human accidents
How we put information into action
The initiatives provided by Geoinfotech make use of up-to-date base maps needed for proper planning and installation of large transmission towers. Helping them identify key characteristics of electricity infrastructure with the use of geospatial data. We provide geospatial data and analyses which shape the way power lines teams look at the electricity sector itself.
Improved decision-making is attained through geospatial data and analysis, which relates the power holding sectors to their environmental impacts and social benefits. Modeling also becomes easier and establishing an intelligent, sustainable decision on future power sector growth is achieved. Improving the availability and transparency of electricity flow maps is essential to solving the unlawful act of connecting to electricity without the permission of an electricity agency or company.
While all of these efforts are quite recent, we are already beginning to see them driving positive sustainable development.

Geoinfotech experienced staff of imagery scientists and analysts will work with you.
This is to exceed a wide range of customized requirements within the desired cost, coverage, schedule, and quality constraints of your project.
Client-side geocoding: this is the most appropriate approach as it executes in the browser, providing a fast response to a user action for an interactive User Experience.
Requests can also include information such as user language, viewport, and region, to improve geocoding quality.
This type of geocoding offers two basic architectures, the first is to geocode in the browser and send it to the server, which allows customizing of responses as well as geocodes caching.
The second approach is to geocode and display the results entirely in the browser to reduce the load on the server.
The Google Maps JavaScript API provides classes that make this request for you, and the authors provide a code sample that geocodes an address, centers the map on that location, and adds a map marker on that spot.
Geoinfotech Mapping of Customers Addresses
Participant address data includes details of Longitude and latitude details for an address insert and modify both support the capture and storing of these values.
Recording of this detail allows the implementation of mapping features such as Google Maps.
Geoinfotech supports the retrieval of geocodes and the display of addresses with geocodes on Google maps via the implementation of either the Google Maps API or the Google Maps for Business API, depending on usage requirements. The Google Maps for Business API uses the same code base as the standard Google Maps API but provides additional features such as higher usage limits.
The Google Maps API key enables monitoring of the application’s Google Maps API usage and ensures that Google can contact the key holders about the application if necessary.
Transform your location data to street addresses and back with our robust & scalable Geocoding APIs at Geoinfotech.
