Adeniran said that the goal is to centralise the database for stakeholders in the country, streamlining the process of obtaining geospatial data.
He said, “The project would be a sort of centralised omnibus database for stakeholders in Nigeria with the aim of providing easy accessibility and streamlining of geospatial data. This would boost Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) for the country as well as her national security.”
He added that the office also looks to create more Continuously Operating Reference Station (CORS) this year.
