A Geographical Information System (GIS) is a computer-based system used to collect, store, manage, analyze, and display geographically referenced data. In eGovernance and planning, GIS plays a vital role by integrating spatial and non-spatial information to support informed decision-making, efficient service delivery, and sustainable development. It enables governments to visualize data on digital maps, identify spatial patterns, and plan developmental activities more effectively. One of the most important applications of GIS in eGovernance is land administration and cadastral management. GIS helps maintain accurate records of land ownership, property boundaries, land use, and revenue information. Digitized land records reduce disputes, improve transparency, simplify property registration, and facilitate easy access to land-related information for citizens. Integration of GIS with online land record systems enhances efficiency and accountability. GIS is widely used in urban planning and smart city development. Urban planners use GIS to prepare master plans, identify suitable locations for residential, commercial, industrial, and recreational zones, and monitor urban growth. It assists in planning roads, drainage systems, water supply networks, public transport routes, and utility services. GIS also helps identify unauthorized constructions, monitor land use changes, and manage urban infrastructure efficiently. In rural development planning, GIS supports the identification of villages requiring basic infrastructure such as roads, schools, healthcare facilities, drinking water supply, and sanitation. It assists in watershed management, soil conservation, agricultural planning, and rural employment programmes. Government schemes can be monitored spatially to ensure equitable distribution of resources and effective implementation. Disaster management is another significant
