Geo-Informatics is science and technology that prepares and applies information science infrastructure to address spatial problems of the Earth (or any other planet). It is a specialized discipline which is intended to prepare human resources for geo-spatial data collection and its management.

Though Geo-Informatics is a relatively new discipline, it has tremendous applications in global and national contexts. Large number of development works are starting in the country: hydropower, transmission line, transportation planning and construction etc. Precision agriculture, forest monitoring and management, wildlife conservation and disaster management are some of the other prominent applications. Moreover, land management and mapping tasks have been divided among local, provincial and federal governments. Therefore, huge number of Geo-Informatics professionals are required in the country.
