in Collaboration with Qison Geospatial Solutions Pvt. Ltd.
St Marys Group of Institutions under the leadership of our Founding Chairman, Rev KVK Rao, and our Secretary & Director, Joseph Sri Harsha, has become the first Institution in the State of Andhra Pradesh to collaborate with Qison Geospatial Solutions Pvt. Ltd in creating employment opportunities for our St Marians. Our Vision At Qison Geospatial Solutions Pvt. Ltd. (QGS) interested Students will enjoy a robust and diverse organisation that provides unlimited career building opportunities and professional development programs. Working within supportive teams, our professionals collaborate to achieve common goals.
QGS has the requirement of 400 positions in the field of Geospatial before 2014 and another 400 by 30 th June 2015. As part of MOU between St Marys & QGS the entire requirements will be filled exclusively from St Marys Group of Institutions.
QGS handles Projects which are large and go on for generally 2-3 years and sometimes longer. It would be offering services end-to-end in all the three areas of GIS namely Surveying, Processing & Web GIS Applications. Why Qison Geospatial ? Our Training Calendar Training period Details 15th February 2014 to 15 th May 2014 QSG has a requirement of 100 positions for its various projects to be duly filled by 15th May 2014. To meet this requirement 250 Students are trained and the selection will be based on the order of merit. 16th May 2014 to 15th August 2014 An additional 100 positions will filled by 15th August 2014. 250 Students will be trained and selected on merit basis. 16th August 2014 to 15th November 2014 QSG requires another 200 Staff by 15th November 2014 out of the 300 trained, students will be placed with QSG in order of merit. The schedule of training and employment are tentative. However, there will not be much change in the number of Students trained and placed. We are training 800 against the requirement of 400 vacancies for the year 2014 with an intention to place trained personnel with QGS and other Companies in the field of Geospatial. It also aims to meet the contingency arising out of the drop out and students leaving Geospatial with an intention of joining other Industries.
Important features:- There will be no commercials for providing Employment. First three months Classroom training will be borne by the College.
There will not be any bond or agreement between QGS & St Marians, students are free to leave for better prospects as and when they want.
The meritorious students capable of securing jobs in MNC and other highly reputed organisations, Students willing to go aboard for further studies need not apply and should not be hindrances to other deserving candidates.
Selection process will commence on 9 th February 2014 at Guntur Campus & 10 th February 2014 at Hyderabad Campus GIS Market The Geospatial market in India and the Middle East is estimated at Rs. 10 billion and is expected to see a 12% growth rate over the next five years. The Indian government's Open Map Policy and Survey of India's large-scale mapping initiatives is unlocking geospatial opportunities in several areas. These include land records, urban planning, environment, forestry and natural resources; utility infrastructure planning and management; and defence. Similarly, the rapid pace of infrastructure development in the Middle East has led to a growing demand for geospatial services in that region.
A GIS is a particular form of Information System applied to geographical data.
An Information System is a set of processes, executed on raw data to produce information which will be useful when making decisions.
A system is a group of connected entities and activities which interact for a common purpose. What is a GIS? An information system has a full range of functions to: process observations process measurements provide descriptions explain data make forecasts make decisions
GIS Its Functions A GIS makes connections between activities based on geographic proximity. The digital data structure can be conceptualized as a set of floating electronic maps with a common registration allowing the used to look down (drill down) and across the stack of maps.
The spatial relationships can be summarized (data base inquiries)
GIS Its connectivity with Other areas. The spatial relationships can be summarized (data base inquiries) or manipulated (analytical processing).
Another definition of GIS - An internally referenced, automated, spatial information system for data mapping, management, and analysis GIS Spatial relationships Capture Data Register Map Base Interpret Data Convert Data to Digital Format Store Data in Computer Process Data Display Results GIS Process Spatial Data Base Attribute Data Base Cartographic Display System Geographic Analysis System Map Digitizing System Image Processing System Statistical Analysis System Database Management System Images Maps Maps Statistical Reports Statistics Tabular Data GIS System Both surveying and GIS are part of a new industry called the Spatial Science Industry
Spatial information describes the location of objects in the real world and relationships between them. What is Spatial Science? GIS is being applied around the world to solve many problems. Surveying is an exciting career that is responsible for the measurement and mapping of our natural and built environments. Surveyors typically have a mixture of outdoor work and office work which normally involves using state of the art computer systems.
Surveyors are involved in land development, hydrographic surveying, mine surveying, construction and aerial mapping. What is Surveying? Land Surveying
