system.
MyGDI OBJECTIVES
To provide mechanism/infrastructure to facilitate the utilisation
and sharing of geospatial data among the agencies that
useand supply the data;
To assist in the sharing of geospatial information between
agencies by providing the latest state-of-the-art information
technologyhence allowing the dissemination of current and
accurate information;
To prevent redundancies of effort in collecting, processing,
maintaining, preparing and distributing of geospatial
informationamongrelated agencies;

To encourage wider use of geospatial data at the state and

national levels;

To stimulate and enhancing the awareness about the value of

geospatial data and the relevant technology;

To contribute towards strenghtening the development of

national geospatial data through collaboration.
Geographical Information System (GIS)
 GIS And Its Components

Ageographic information
system(GIS) is a computer system for
capturing, storing, checking, and
displaying data related to positions on
Earth's surface.

GIScan show many different kinds of

data on one map. This enables people
to more easily see, analyze, and
understand patterns and relationships.

Mar 26, 2011. National Geography

Geospatial information has application in many fields including humanitarian, peace and
security, environmental and development challenges facing the world, such as climate
change, natural disasters, pandemics, famines, population displacement and food and
economic crises, according to the report.

Building the infrastructure for the gathering, validation, compilation and dissemination of
geospatial information is therefore as important for countries as the building of roads and
telecommunications networks.

Malaysia : Decision making :Using GIS to
manage the Muar River Basin for sufficient water,
clean water supply, reduce flood risks and to
enhance environmental conservations.
Users:
The Management of Ministry of Natural Resources
and Environment (NRE), Malaysia
Key use:
To Manage the Muar River basin for sufficient
water, clean water supply, reduce flood risks and
to enhance environmental conservations.
How?:
The Maps in Geoinformation For Natural Resources
And Environment (G4NRE) will be use to determine
the coordination in conservation, management and
water resources development across all sectors in
the Muar River Basin. It aims to maximize
economic and social benefit to preserve and
reinstating water resources and natural
ecosystem.
Benefits:
These comprehensive information will assist the
management of NRE to take necessary steps in
order to preserve the water resources and
environmental conservation. It can Improve
returns on investment through better
coordination , use and reuse of data, information
and system and to enhance innovation and
productivity.
