IIRS Outreach Programme:

The use of Remote Sensing, Geographical Information System, Global Navigation Satellite

System and associated geospatial technologies is increasing rapidly, creating an urgent demand

for trained manpower. The live and interactive mode of distance learning is enabled through

Internet and A-view software platform developed by Amrita e-learning Lab in collaboration

with Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) Government of India. The programs

are available through Internet without any cost to the user. The live and interactive sessions

will be conducted by experts from IISR-ISRO and other knowledge Institutions. IIRS has

successfully conducted 22 such courses so far with participation of over 120258+ participants

from 1048+ academic institutions, government departments and industry. The beneficiaries of

the programme may include:

Central/State/Private Universities & Academic Institutions;

Central & State Government Organizations/Departments;

Research Institutes;

Geospatial Industry;

NGOs

IIRS also conducts various theme oriented online courses and monthly webinars on recent

topics on geospatial technologies and its applications. Users are encouraged to actively

participate on these programs.

Reception of the Program: Live & Interactive programme can be received in two ways:

A-View: A-VIEW is an advanced multi-modal, multi-platform, collaborative e-learning solution

which allows an instructor to teach or interact with a large number of learners transcending

geographies on a real-time basis through live audio video streaming and synchronized content

sharing. A-VIEW allows the instructor to perform live evaluation of the learners and to get real-

time feedback from attendees on the go. A-VIEW can also act as an online meeting tool that

can support online social collaboration and interactions with multiple users from various

locations simultaneously. (http://aview.in/)

Webcasting: Webcasting is the process of video broadcasting live over the internet.
