IIT Bombay| YOUTH DELEGATE PROGRAM?

Abhyuday, IIT Bombay is a student-run organization working towards creating a sense of Social Responsibility and Leadership among the youth of India. We take initiatives to inspire the youth by instilling a sense of responsibility towards the society and develop a culture of participation in impact-oriented activities.

To bring Student's, NGOs and CSR on the same platform in order to promote the exchange of ideas, values and culture among them, we are pleased to announce 'The Delegate Program' for Social Fest 2020.

WHY DO WE HAVE YOUTH DELEGATE PROGRAM?

There is a need for today's youth to lead their generation and do good for society. The Youth Delegate Program intends to bring out the leaders inside the students, young NGOs and corporates across India. Through the Youth Delegate Program (YDP) socially inclined youth across the country represent the people of their College/Society/Company/NGO in Social Fest 2020, where they put forth their issues and ideas.

WHO IS A DELEGATE?

A delegate is a representative from an NGO/College/Social Startup/Corporate or any other organization with the opportunity to present their work during Social Fest 2020 and voice the issues concerning them.

SOCIAL FEST 2020

The Seventh edition of Social Fest of Abhyuday, IIT Bombay is being organised on 18th and 19th January 2020 based on the theme "The Gen-Z Spark". The fest aims at sensitizing the youth to the pressing issues in the society at a large scale and along with self-awareness, solutions are presented. With our theme for this edition 'The Gen-Z Spark', we are focusing on triggering the generation Z to take up the fight for change against the social order for a better tomorrow.

Resonating with the quote by Mother Teresa "I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples ", the fest will encompass a wide spectrum of events dealing with burning social issues such as Women empowerment, LGBTQ issues, Climate change, Youth empowerment etc.

History of GIS

1. 1832 - Early Spatial Analysis in Epidemiology: - Charles Picquet creates a map in Paris detailing cholera deaths per 1,000 inhabitants. - Utilizes halftone color gradients for visual representation. 2. 1854 - John Snow's Cholera Outbreak Analysis: - Epidemiologist John Snow identifies cholera outbreak source in London using spatial analysis. - Maps casualties' residences and nearby water sources to pinpoint the outbreak's origin. 3. Early 20th Century - Photozincography and Layered Mapping: - Photozincography development allows maps to be split into layers for vegetation, water, etc. - Introduction of layers, later a key feature in GIS, for separate printing plates. 4. Mid-20th Century - Computer Facilitation of Cartography: - Waldo Tobler's 1959 publication details using computers for cartography. - Computer hardware development, driven by nuclear weapon research, leads to broader mapping applications by early 1960s. 5. 1960 - Canada Geograph...

Accuracy Assessment

Accuracy assessment is the process of checking how correct your classified satellite image is . 👉 After supervised classification, the satellite image is divided into classes like: Water Forest Agriculture Built-up land Barren land But classification is done using computer algorithms, so some areas may be wrongly classified . 👉 Accuracy assessment helps to answer this question: ✔ "How much of my classified map is correct compared to real ground conditions?" Goal The main goal is to: Measure reliability of classified maps Identify classification errors Improve classification results Provide scientific validity to research 👉 Without accuracy assessment, a classified map is not considered scientifically reliable . Reference Data (Ground Truth Data) Reference data is real-world information used to check classification accuracy. It can be collected from: ✔ Field survey using GPS ✔ High-resolution satellite images (Google Earth etc.) ✔ Existing maps or survey reports 🧭 Exampl...

Supervised Classification

Image Classification in Remote Sensing Image classification in remote sensing involves categorizing pixels in an image into thematic classes to produce a map. This process is essential for land use and land cover mapping, environmental studies, and resource management. The two primary methods for classification are Supervised and Unsupervised Classification . Here's a breakdown of these methods and the key stages of image classification. 1. Types of Classification Supervised Classification In supervised classification, the analyst manually defines classes of interest (known as information classes ), such as "water," "urban," or "vegetation," and identifies training areas —sections of the image that are representative of these classes. Using these training areas, the algorithm learns the spectral characteristics of each class and applies them to classify the entire image. When to Use Supervised Classification: - You have prior knowledge about the c...

Development and scope of Environmental Geography and Recent concepts in environmental Geography

Environmental Geography studies the relationship between humans and nature in a spatial (place-based) way. It combines Physical Geography (natural processes) and Human Geography (human activities). A. Early Stage 🔹 Environmental Determinism Concept: Nature controls human life. Meaning: Climate, landforms, and soil decide how people live. Example: People in deserts (like Sahara Desert) live differently from people in fertile river valleys. 🔹 Possibilism Concept: Humans can modify nature. Meaning: Environment gives options, but humans make choices. Example: In dry areas like Rajasthan, people use irrigation to grow crops. 👉 In this stage, geography was mostly descriptive (explaining what exists). B. Evolution Stage (Mid-20th Century) Environmental problems increased due to: Industrialization Urbanization Deforestation Pollution Geographers started studying: Environmental degradation Resource management Human impact on ecosystems The field became analytical and problem-solving...

GIS: Real World and Representations - Modeling and Maps

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) serve as a bridge between the real world and digital representations of geographic phenomena. These representations allow users to store, analyze, and visualize spatial data for informed decision-making. Two key aspects of GIS in this context are modeling and maps , both of which are used to represent real-world geographic features and phenomena in a structured, analyzable format. Let's delve into these concepts, terminologies, and examples in detail. 1. Real World and Representations in GIS Concept: The real world comprises physical, tangible phenomena, such as landforms, rivers, cities, and infrastructure, as well as more abstract elements like weather patterns, population densities, and traffic flow. GIS allows us to represent these real-world phenomena digitally, enabling spatial analysis, decision-making, and visualization. The representation of the real world in GIS is achieved through various models and maps , which simplify...
