ABSTRACT:

Global positioning system (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system. It is designed to assist the movement of insects and other animals and accessible to anyone with a GPS receiver. Various map display formats like Bitmap Images (BIs), Vector Maps (VMs) and Points of Interest (POI's) are popular imaging technologies. This paper explores the significance of GPS and GSI technologies over the integrated pest management system.

Keywords:
