1. Introduction Government undertakes various schemes for social and economic welfare of the people. These schemes are implemented by various ministries of the government some of which are funded by the central government and some by the state. Earlier, monitoring the privileges and benefits received by the beneficiaries for any government was not well established, but in the recent past, due to the technological advancements in information and communication technologies, many government departments have started to develop and maintain information systems for tracking the delivery of benefits. The information received by them is maintained as records in the database and many of the government departments lack the facilities or personal with expertise in presenting this information in the most creative and informative way. In a drive to help the organization to better understand and present data in the most informative way, Telangana State Remote Sensing Applications Centre (TRAC) has taken the responsibility of collecting data from several departments for building a web mapping interface which would thematically display data in the most dynamic way. There are several mapping libraries that exists to implement thematic mapping functionality through web but the present study concentrates its efforts to build a web interface using open source software SharpMap. The results and discussion section highlights upon the uses of this technology over licensed software such as ArcGIS technologies and also brings about the reasons of choosing this SharpMap over other open source software's.
