				Introduction 
				The 
				Gadag 
				district NRDMS Centre was established in the year 
				 
				2007-2008 
				at Office of the 
				
				Gadag 
				Zilla Panchayath 
				with financial support from Department of Science and 
				Technology, Government 
				of India, Implemented by K.S.C.S.T, Bangalore with active 
				support from Department
				of Science & 
				Technology, Government 
				of Karnataka. The main objective of the centre is to create 
				the digital database on Natural resources, Demography, Agro & 
				Socio economy and infrastructure facilities  of the  
				District to provide analysed information to the district 
				administrators, Zilla panchayath, line departments, Academic 
				institutions and NGOs in Natural resources management and  
				rural development planning with the help of  GIS  and 
				other advanced scientific technologies. 
				 
				Activities carried 
				out at District NRDMS Centre 
					
					
					
					The primary 
					objective of District NRDMS Centre under NRDMS Project is to 
					create Extensive database on Spatial Database (Maps) and Non-Spatial 
					Database (Attribute data) of Natural Resources, Socio & agro-economic 
					parameters and Infrastructure facilities of the district 
					after collating from the line departments and other 
					organizations and it is been updating regularly based on 
					nature of availability of data and requirements.
					
					prepared a Location Map and list of villages within a 5 km 
					buffer of mine areas to identify those affected by mining, 
					providing this data to the Chief Executive Officer for the 
					effective implementation of the District Mines Fund (DMF).
					
					Data Integration for Land Classification: Survey number-wise 
					data in Excel format was geo-processed by joining it with 
					cadastral boundary data (a standard GIS .shpfile) to delineate and generate required spatial outputs 
					distinguishing Wild Life Area, Non-Wild Life Area, and 
					Nilgiris Plantation Blocks for the Territorial Forest 
					Department's reference.
					
					Village-level GIS mapping of HDI components (Education, 
					Health, Living Standard) for Gadag District was accomplished 
					by joining socio-economic data (Excel) to village boundary 
					shapefiles to produce thematic maps for reporting.
					
					Generated contour maps and various other maps, along with an 
					Excel sheet of village-wise survey numbers, to determine the 
					water spread area and extent of land that would be submerged 
					both upstream and downstream, in support of the District 
					Administration's plan to increase the storage height of the 
					Hammagi Dam from EL 507 to 508.
					
					Non-spatial crop survey data from 14 villages was integrated 
					with the spatial cadastral boundary data via a GIS JOIN 
					operation to create thematic maps for crop insurance 
					verification, categorizing field status 
					(Matched/Unmatched/Sown/Not Insured).
					
					To support the proposed location of 4 new PWM Units, the 
					Zilla Panchayat Office, Gadag, used GIS processing to create 
					a 20 KM buffer around the unit locations, then clipped and 
					mapped the villages falling within this jurisdiction  
					to determine coverage. 
					
					Activity Report for the 
					Month April - July 2025
