Hi, I tried to register as a volunteer but am getting an error. Can the web managers look at it?
Please guide, I want to create a custom map for my organization, which has many departments located across the globe. I want map in which I can show all departments individually. And also show thousands of polygons (area wise working boundaries of each department/branch). For example, map shows multiple marker locations (departments location), showing their respective working boundaries area-wise like; Pakistan has 4 provinces, so 4 polygons (1 for each province), each province has many cities (each city has it own polygon), in a city (for example lahore) all towns/blocks in lahore has their own polygons.
Please recommend what software or service is beneficial for it? And where I can get GIS data of Pakistan (specifically area-wise).
Dear I am Dr. Ishfaq ahmad and working on remote sensing and GIS application on Agriculture. I need tehsil wise shape file of Pakistan
can any one got any sort of reply from this so called site.
i think we should create our own chain.
