“…In contrast, others claimed that bamboos, being an evergreen plant, could be easily detected and quantified using RS especially in the winter or in the dry season when other trees lose their green colour due to leaf senescence (Ferreira et al, 2020). Despite these challenges, there are some promising trials carried out in countries, such as China, India and Brazil, to quantify bamboo forests using RS (Bharadwaj et al, 2003;Linderman et al, 2004;Tang et al, 2016). Dida et al (2021) carried out an extensive study to quantify bamboo resources in the Philippines, but omitting those in the forest understory due to low visibility and limited inventory data for validation.…”

“…The RS and GIS techniques are being effectively used in India for preparation of soil erosion inventories (Saha and Pande, 1993). The GIS and RS are effectively used for bamboo resource management and planning in two of the north-eastern states in India, that is, Manipur and Tripura (Bhardwaj et al, 2003). Impact analysis and other case studies can be facilitated by the GIS system, provided the baseline is in place, and other relevant information is collected periodically and is put into the system.…”

In a developing country like India, the challenge is to integrate new technologies in the management and planning of public resources in a more effective manner. This article has suggested some examples and approaches to integrate geo-informatics and mobile technology into diverse sectors such as water management, forest fire management and planning of roads. This article is based on three case studies from India where geo-informatics and mobile technology have been used creatively towards management of public resources. The processes and methods in this article highlight the approaches through which these vital public resources can be actively managed. In business, organizations need to innovate or die. In the public sector, it is unlikely that the organization will collapse due to lack of innovation. However, better management of essential public resources can make a substantial difference. Therefore, especially in public sector, it is important to share the case studies and recognize the best practices to encourage the adoption of creative methods for resource management. It is hoped that the article will be of value to public administrators and public organizations in successfully designing and enforcing technology-led best practices in their e-governance projects.
