Dr. Jayachandra Kannemadugu, CEO

Organizations today are increasingly adopting Geographic Information System(GIS) solutions as they provide more advanced capabilities to analyze spatial information, interpret data and create maps, along with bringing improved communication, better decision-making and cost savings, leading to greater efficiency. Furthermore, GIS combined with other geospatial technologies such as Remote Sensing, GPS/DGPS and ETS have emerged as powerful tools in catering solutions for geo/location based requirements of both Government and Private organizations. However, despite many benefits of Geospatial technology, factors such as having a correct understanding of the requirement and input availability, appropriate cost estimation, partnering with the right solution provider and following the right procedures are highly significant and play a pivotal role in the success of any GIS project. Perfectly understanding and aligning with these requisites, Hyderabad headquartered M/s. Global Information Technologies (GITGeomatics) steps forward to leverage these GIS capabilities in its comprehensive suite of GIS technology services.
