within a display. 4D GIS (XYZ and time) is the nextmajor frontier. Currently, time is handled as a series ofstored map layers that can be animated to viewchanges on the landscape. Tomorrow's data structureswill accommodate time as a stored dimension andcompletely change the conventional mappingparadigm.

Flagship GIS systems, once heralded as"toolboxes," are giving way to web services andtailored application solutions. There is growingnumber of websites with extensive sets of map layersthat enable users to mix and match their own customviews. Data exchange and interoperability standardsare taking hold to extend this flexibility to multiplenodes on the web, with some data from here, analytictools from there and display capabilities from overthere and this results high-level applications. Anothercharacteristic of the new processing environment isthe full integration of the Global Positioning System(GPS) and remote sensing imagery with GIS. GPS andthe digital map bring geographic positioning to thepalm of your hand. Toggling on and off an aerialphotograph/high resolution satellite image providesreality as a backdrop to GIS summarized and modeledinformation.

At Global level various space agencies are providingremote sensing satellite images free of cost. Opensource software and various analysis plug in can bedownloaded from the internet. At international levelvarious researchers and academicians have formed theconsortium for promoting the free and open sourcetools and data resources. In this changed scenario it isvery important to have knowledge about the abovementioned free and open source solutions.

BACKGROUND REGISTRATION PROCEDURE AND FEEMaps have an important role in the development

and planning process. The decision-making processhas become increasingly quantitative andmathematical models have become commonplace.Prior to the computerized map, most spatial analyseswere severely limited by their manual processingprocedures. The computer has provided the meansfor both efficient handling of voluminous data andeffective spatial analysis capabilities.

The revolution of Information Technology (IT) andSpace Technology has completely changed thescenario in the area of Surveying and MappingTechnology. Nowadays, the map database is preferredin the digital form on the computer by using the spatialdata storage, manipulation, analysis and managementsystem known as Geographic Information System(GIS). The satellite based high resolution stereo sensorimaging technology has changed the methodology forearth resources and infrastructure mapping forvarious applications. Development of GlobalNavigation Satellite System (GNSS) has provided analternative to the ground control survey methods forthe poorly mapped areas, which could not be mappedusingconventional methods.

The three-geospatial technologies namely, RemoteSensing, GIS and GNSS in integration could provide anefficient and cost effective tool in the development,monitoring and management of natural resources andinfrastructure and these are nowadays known by asingle name Geoinformatics or Geomatics.G e o i n f o r m a t i c s is one of the three"megatechnologies" of the 21st century namelyGeoinformatics, Nanotechnology & Biotechnology.Geoinformatics has the capability to provide thebackbone for the Digital India mission recentlylaunched bytheGovt. of India.

In place of earlier 2D planimetric paper map, today,one expects to be able to drape spatial information ona 3D view of the terrain. Virtual reality can transformthe information from pastel polygons to renderedobjects of trees, lakes and buildings for nearphotographic realism. Embedded hyperlinks accessactual photos, video, audio, text and data associatedwith map locations. Immersive imaging enables theuser to interactively pan and zoom in all directions

ABOUT MANIT BHOPALThe Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology(MANIT) was formerly known as Maulana AzadCollege of Technology (MACT). MANIT Bhopal is aninstitute of national importance under the control ofMFIRD, Govt, of India. Institute has received grantsfrom MFIRD for developing Centre of Excellence inGeoinformatics. The institute is located in the heart ofBhopal City, the capital of Madhya Pradesh and wellknown worldwide as the City of Lakes. It is wellconnected to various parts of country by Road, Railand Air. The institute is located at a distance of around8 Km from Bhopal railway station and 20 Km fromBhopal Airport.

ABOUTTHE WORKSHOPThis workshop will provide an opportunity to theacademicians, researchers, scientists, field engineersand administrators, for the theoretical and practicalknowledge of Free and Open Source Solutions ofGeoinformatics. In this workshop lectures will bedelivered by institute faculty as well as faculty fromreputed organizations. Dr. Venkatesh Raghavan,Professor Osaka City University Japan is the mainexpert faculty of this workshop.
