Research Cell - Data Warehousing Initiatives

The Research Initiative has perceived a critical need for multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional R&D program, which aims at developing methodologies for building and promoting the use of spatial and non-spatial data, its management and its analysis.

Also, there is a need for making available to the decision makers, planners, researchers and public institutions, the necessary data and data handling tools and techniques, for accessing locale relevant data, such as on natural resources and human resources endowments, agriculture, climate, meteorology, etc for generating alternative scenarios for development, planning and interventions. The ultimate goal is to develop an integrated information system for data sharing, data accessing and data use for solving locale specific problems.

The methodological development of databases and data warehouse will support and leverage core missions of several agencies as well as their interactive counterparts in the society. JalaSRI has taken an initiative in development of data warehouse for spatial and non-spatial data of Jalgaon District of Maharashtra State.

The various working groups of JalaSRI need relevant information/data, on which they are supposed to analyze and propose cost-effective alternatives for achieving equitable growth and prosperity generation. In this initiative all such requirements are being progressively identified by the JalaSRI team along with its multidisciplinary working groups, working closely with the District and PRI officials throughout the District.

Based on the information and the data analysis from various JalaSRI working groups, appropriate recommendations will be made and discussed with the concerned officials of the district administration, for modification and implementation. Socio Economic impact, and on ground evaluation will be measured and reported as well as recorded into the data warehouse, for enabling future learning and sharing with other districts.

The KCES Research initiative is committed to obtain and report good examples of improved governance and better socio-economic impact, in all areas like – Watershed Development & River Linking, Biodiversity, Irrigation Delivery, Banking and Credit performance, Ecological Health and Disease Control, Human/Animal Health Support, Poverty Alleviation And Unemployment Reduction.

JalaSRI Data Warehouse Access Privileges

While JalaSRI researchers will have free access to all raw data and analyses, other collaborators will be given access, only through a designated JalaSRI interface, and a policy on attribution and feeding back use/publication of material using our data, will be enunciated. Others may be given access only to public domain material. Studies and comparisons will be undertaken on other existing data-warehouses, like PASDA of Penn state University, EPA and USGS of the Government of USA, etc; and learnings will be made use of.
