ONE WEEK GSAG TRAINING WORKSHOP
ON
Exploration of geosciences using advanced geo-information tools
(21th to 25th, June 2021)
Venue: GIS & Space Applications in Geosciences Lab (G-SAGL),
NCE in Geology, University of Peshawar.
Background:
Remote sensing and GIS are becoming effective and efficient tools in the exploration, monitoring, and management of natural resources. Growing remote sensing data with enhanced capabilities and GIS techniques provides opportunities for its utilization in various fields of geosciences including minerals and geo-structural mapping, geo-hazards assessment and mitigation, assessment and management of water and forest resources. GIS & Space Applications in Geosciences Lab (G-SAGL), recently established at the National Centre of Excellence in Geology, University of Peshawar, in affiliation with the National Center of GIS and Space Applications (NCGSA), aims to apply and promote the geo-information applications in geosciences related futuristic areas that are of strategic national importance, economic benefit and for the creation of knowledge economy and scientific leadership. To develop and enhance the capacity of the relevant stakeholders, the G-SAGL is organizing a comprehensive workshop on “Exploration of geosciences using advanced geo-information tools”. The workshop shall provide a platform to the relevant professionals to grasp the theoretical background of geo-information data and analysis tools and their potential applications in geosciences.
