Genesys International and Survey of India (SOI) have joined forces in a groundbreaking collaboration aimed at transforming mapping in India. This strategic partnership focuses on the creation of digital twins for major cities and towns utilizing Genesys’ comprehensive navigable maps covering all of India. Their constellation of sensors, and SOI’s recently launched CORS network enabling real-time, high-precision positioning data.
The collaboration introduces the India Map Stack initiative – a project that synergizes Genesys’ expertise with SOI’s robust technical infrastructure. The initiative aims to develop a 3D Digital Twin that government departments can leverage for various new initiatives. Hitesh Kumar Makwana, IAS, Surveyor General of India, emphasizes the potential of this venture stating that the integration of CORS technology with private sector surveying expertise will enhance the usability and reliability of geospatial data. This in turn unlocks new possibilities for India’s development catering to the evolving needs of the larger public.
The partnership capitalizes on Genesys International’s proficiency in navigable mapping and its constellation of sensors complemented by SOI’s CORS network which provides real time, high precision positioning data. The collaboration is expected to significantly contribute to the geospatial data landscape in India.
As part of this initiative the India Map Stack will be a pivotal outcome showcasing the combined strengths of Genesys and SOI. The initiative aligns with the government’s vision for advanced mapping solutions that can be applied across sectors for improved decision making and planning.
The Genesys-SOI collaboration marks a strategic convergence of private sector innovation with government resources. The resulting digital twins will not only enhance the accuracy of mapping but also find applications in diverse sectors, from urban planning to infrastructure development.
In summary, the Genesys International and Survey of India partnership is set to revolutionize India’s map content, introducing advanced digital twins that harness the power of accurate navigable maps, sensor technology, and real-time positioning data. The India Map Stack initiative, born out of this collaboration, signifies a significant step towards harnessing geospatial data for the nation’s development across various domains. This pioneering effort exemplifies the potential that emerges when public and private entities join forces to push the boundaries of technological innovation for the greater good.
