About NRSC

National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC), ISRO, is a centre of eminence providing remote sensing data acquisition, data processing and geospatial application services for Earth Observation to meet the national goals and objectives. It has the mandate for establishment of ground stations for receiving satellite data, generation of data products, dissemination to the users, conducting aerial surveys, development of techniques for remote sensing applications including disaster management support, providing geospatial services for good governance, and capacity building, human resources development in the remote sensing and related technology areas. NRSC is in the forefront of using geospatial information technologies and is collaborating with its stakeholders for building a thriving innovation ecosystem in the Geospatial Technology arena. NRSC designed and developed an S/X band dual polarization 7.5M antenna system to meet the current and future Earth Observation mission requirements. NRSC has the potential to establish antenna systems for receiving remote sensing satellite data at S and X band for Indian and foreign users subject to approval of Department of Space (DOS). NRSC is the nodal centre for Data processing and hosting Satellite Data Products from more than 13 IRS satellites right from the first IRS optical mission namely IRS-1A and SAR imaging missions. The Government agencies, industries and academia are highly benefiting and meeting their respective end objectives from valuable huge data products archive, remote sensing science, technology, applications and services provided by NRSC.
