All members of the above mentioned groups took
a keen role and actively
participated in the development of the Remote Sensing and GIS curriculum.
Convener of the meeting Dr. Waqar Ahmad presented his vision and the
approached that various groups should adopt to tackle the above mentioned
challenges. He discussed in length the pros and cons of various alternatives
at hand. After useful discussions, the house unanimously approved that the
RS & GIS curricula development focus should be
on the application of the
Remote Sensing and GIS technologies for the management of Pakistan’s
natural and environmental resources. If someone is interested in the
development of the underlying Remote Sensing and GIS software, that can
be followed up under the elective courses stream.
In joint sessions of the two meetings, each coordinator of the corresponding
group explained the details and the justification of each of the course of their
stream to all members of the mentioned groups.
In their presentation, a
clear guideline was given requesting them to discuss the weekly topics
(theory and practical) that need to be taught at undergraduate and
postgraduate level. In this joint session, all participants had an opportunity
to view the overall course offerings and
render their advices in the
finalization of the RS&GIS.
The final meeting also concentrated on the resources requirement (ensuring
cross institutional uniformity), maintenance of RS & GIS curriculum quality
by setting up a national body i.e.
Pakistan Council of Remote Sensing
