We invite you to an informative lecture about India’s complex challenges and promising opportunities surrounding geospatial data utilisation. The speaker will deliberate on the often-overlooked grey areas faced by academics and researchers as they work to leverage the vast quantities of geospatial data being produced in our country.
While the advances in satellite-based technologies promise an upsurge in upstream and downstream geospatial data capabilities, despite significant strides towards a visionary national geospatial policy, significant constraints still need to be added in deploying this data for academic and private commercial use. This talk will cover geospatial data challenges in a wide range of applications from experience, including national security, environment, urban, and ocean studies.
Whether you’re a geospatial enthusiast, a budding researcher looking to tap into extensive data resources for strategic and security purposes, or simply curious about the implications of geospatial trends for national security and the sustainable development of cities, this lecture is designed to engage and inform. Take advantage of this chance to participate in an interactive session outlining the challenges and the transformative experiences of researchers navigating this critical field.
