The Regional Centre for Mapping of Resources for Development (RCMRD) is an inter-governmental organization and currently has 20 Contracting Member States in the Eastern and Southern Africa Regions.
Our Mission:
To promote sustainable development in the member States through generation, application and dissemination of geo-information and allied ICT technologies, products and services.
Approach:
RCMRD functional programmes have moved away from service technology framework (e.g. Remote Sensing, Geodesy, Cartography etc.) to problem solving applications in natural resource and environmental management. RCMRD is now providing service on demand driven basis.
RCMRD is now moving into the future with confidence and endeavors to live up to its values of upholding the highest standards of services to its customers and continuously improving the quality of services and products.
Our Vision:
To be a premier Centre of excellence in the provision of geo-information for sustainable development in the member States and beyond.
