I consider it a great honor to be called upon to prepare a paper on birth centenary of Dr. Daroga Singh, Former Director of the Institute. I am grateful to ISAS and especially Dr. Padam Singh, Executive President, ISAS for giving me this opportunity. I am greatly indebted to Dr. Daroga Singh for his generosity, kindness, guidance and support right from my student days at IASRI and his inspiration and guidance as Chairman of my Advisory Committee for both my M.Sc. Degree and Ph.D Degree at IASRI and in Delhi University. After I joined service at IASRI, Dr. Daroga Singh remained a great inspiration and support for which I will remain indebted to him throughout my life. During 1980’s, NATP Programme sponsored by UNDP was implemented at ICAR and its research institutes to give a thrust to application of the new and advanced technologies in different fields of Agricultural research to boost the production and research. During this period, Dr. Prem Narain has been the Director of the Institute. He had a great vision and zest to work and during his time, the research activities of the Institute expanded vastly. He had great belief in the enormous strength of the Remote
Sensing technology and hence it was recognized as a new thrust area of research under NATP and I was given the responsibility to initiate research programs in this field. As Dr. D. Singh had been great supporter of new technology therefore, we have therefore decided to present work done at IASRI in the area of Remote Sensing and Geo-Informatics in this paper, which is dedicated to him.
