Mission	Aim: ITC is an internationally recognized centre of excellence in international education. ITC aims at capacity building and institutional development of professional and academic organizations and individuals specifically in countries that are economically and/or technologically less developed. Gateway: The education is based on knowledge exchange between scientific and professional organizations in less developed countries on the one hand and those in the Western world on the other, whereby ITC acts as a two-directional gateway for knowledge exchange. Knowledge field: The knowledge field of ITC is geo-information science and earth observation, which consists of a combination of tools and methods for the collection - through aerospace survey techniques -, storage and processing of geo-spatial data, for the dissemination and use of these data and of services based on these data. Approach: ITC's approach is application-oriented, directed at finding solutions for and strengthening civil society in addressing issues of local, national and global dimensions such as the multifunctional use of scarce resources, including space, the effects of climate change and environmental security.
Addition	Het Instituut voor Geo-Informatie Wetenschappen en Aardobservatie (ITC) is het grootste internationaal wetenschappelijk onderwijs- en onderzoeksinstituut in Nederland. Het in 1950 opgerichte instituut, met vestigingen in Enschede en Delft, concentreert zich op kennisoverdracht en onderzoek op het gebied van aardobservatie-toepassingen en geografisch informatie management voor duurzame sociale en economische ontwikkeling. Het ITC richt zich in de eerste plaats op human resources development binnen organisaties en instellingen in ontwikkelingslanden. Veel aandacht gaat uit naar de ontwikkeling en toepassingen van geografische informatiesystemen. Tevens verricht het instituut wereldwijd adviseringswerkzaamheden. Het ITC is een autonome, non-profit, niet-gouvernementele organisatie. Vanaf 1 januari 2010 is het Internationaal Instituut voor Geo-Informatie Wetenschap en Aardobservatie (ITC) de zesde faculteit van de Universiteit Twente (UT).
