It is worth mentioning at this point that Geo-Spatial Science is the study of spatial information describing the earth and the built environment. It involves Internet of Things (IoT), combined with Geographic information systems (GIS), Global Positioning System (GPS), Remote Sensing, Surveying, Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), Radar, Drones, Cartography and so on.
In Geo-Spatial science, information relating to people, places, environment, ecology etc. are analyzed with the help of Applied Information Technology. It is much relevant for the students in enhancing their employability in today's competitive market.
