Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY – Prime Minister’s Rural Road Programme) was launched by the Government of India as part of a poverty reduction strategy to provide all-weather road connectivity to unconnected habitations. Geospatial Rural Road Information System (GRRIS) is a Geographical presentation of PMGSY. GRRIS seeks to provide every citizen, even in the remotest corner, of this country to visually see on a simple map, the details of the rural roads and roads improved/covered under the PMGSY scheme in a particular Block, District and State. It also provides locational information of habitations, markets, administrative headquarters etc, which will help in better decision making of the resident communities of a rural area and development of rural markets & enterprises.

The application uses data from heterogeneous databases. It performs queries and display dynamic spatial information using the live national level OMMAS database. GRRIS dynamically displays the data updated in the external MIS database. Based on user interactions, the Web GIS application generates thousands of possible outputs; therefore, you may take a look at the online help.
