14. Road Map for GIS enabled State
E-Governance Projects should be Geo-enabled
Set standards and framework
Emphasis on Applications developed centrally, deployed over
central application servers
Prioritize data collection and creations
Use as federated model for effective sharing and usage of
data
Focus on Training and Capacity Building on a continuous
basis.
