GIS Center partnership with Private sector
With GIS Center’s concern to provide a high quality and level of services, the center has joined selected professional organizations in different capacities.
We are regular members of Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and International Cartographic Association (ICACI) and sustaining member of the International Society of Photogrammetry & Remote Sensing (ISPRS).
These enable us to keep our standards and processes up-to-date at world level as well as to ensure that our needs & concerns are heard at that level for getting professional cognizance & solutions.
The Center has also initiated / signed technical cooperation ventures with many private companies in the field of GIS, such as Navteq and GIS Development LLC.
The main aim for having such a mutual partnership with private companies is to benefit from their expertise & experience and also provide our services to raise the level of use & integration of geospatial field in our region. This will also increase the communication and collaboration between the private and the government sectors since they both will share the database in GIS center.
