The Office of the Surveyor General of the Federation has pledged to deploy a Geographical Information System expert for the Border Communities Development Agency to help establish its GIS unit.
According to a statement signed by Head Press and Public Relations, Sani Datti, the Surveyor General of the Federation, Abuduganiyu Adebomehin, stated this when the Executive Secretary paid him a courtesy visit at the agency headquarters in Abuja.
He reassured the agency of his support and collaboration in the areas of mapping, identification, and information regarding border communities across the country.
“If it pleases you, we will be ready to draft one of the best hands to be with you and be in charge of your GIS, as it would not be meaningful if you don’t have someone who understands the transformation and coordinate systems,” he stated.
He noted that it was one thing to have imagery and another to be able to read it.
