International Institute for Geo-Information and Earth Sciences, ITC – The Netherlands

 

ITC primarily aims at international education, flanked by research and project services. Its activities relate to international knowledge exchange, focusing on capacity building and institutional development in countries that are economically and technologically less advanced. ITC’s activities concentrate on “Geo-information Science and Earth Observation” whereby geo-spatial data collection is predominantly based on aerospace survey techniques.
Two distinct geo-spatial issues determine ITC’s focus: data modelling (including information extraction from imagery) and production processes. The Institute’s educational programmes, as well as its research and project services, focus on two problem areas:

  • Solutions for the use of geo-spatial data, especially with respect to the management of space and resources.

  • Provision of geo-spatial data, which comprises issues such as concepts, technology, management and policy.
