History

WHY DATA RESCUE SCHEME WAS NECESSARY


DATA RESCUE SCHEME was necessary to be implemented because of the following reasons :-
  • ACCESSIBILITY - This Data was inaccessible because it was stored in various store rooms in random manner along with other Sheets of Data, it took weeks and sometimes months to trace a particular charts
  • To Search a specific Sheet it was impossible for the IMD officers to access the old data, so the officer were depended only on the latest 3-5 years of Data for Analysis and Research Purposes
  • VALUABLE DATA – this data of such great importance was lying unused
  • Since this Data was very old some Paper Sheets started Decaying and were deteriorating day by day and there was possibility of losing all the important Data
  • In future this Data can also be used by various other Governmental Bodies for their Research work and linked to their DataBases
  • This Data can also be used in Collaboration with other Global Community and Countries for better Analysis and Forecasting
  • VALUABLE FOR FORECASTING AND ANALYSIS – Once the data is Digitally Photographed, named and proper search engine be developed this valuable data would be made available to the Scientific Community just by the click of mouse
