Operation Dronagiri

 

Operation Dronagiri



    Professor Abhay Karandikar, Secretary of the Department of Science and Technology, introduced Operation Dronagiri, which aligns with the National Geospatial Policy 2022. It aims to showcase geospatial technologies to enhance citizens’ quality of life and streamline business operations.

Objectives of Operation Dronagiri

    Operation Dronagiri focuses on three key sectors: Agriculture, Livelihoods, and Logistics and Transport. The initiative will be implemented in five states: Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Assam, Andhra Pradesh, and Maharashtra. Pilot projects will demonstrate the integration of geospatial data in these sectors.

    The project will involve various stakeholders, including government departments, industries, corporates, and startups. This collaborative approach aims to create a robust foundation for a nationwide rollout. Engagement from the private sector is crucial for the project’s success.

Integrated Geospatial Data Sharing Interface (GDI)

    An important component of Operation Dronagiri is the Integrated Geospatial Data Sharing Interface (GDI). This platform enables seamless access and sharing of spatial data. It supports urban planning, environmental monitoring, and disaster management. GDI employs advanced data exchange protocols and ensures privacy preservation.

Benefits of GDI

    GDI facilitates efficient data processing and analysis. It unlocks actionable insights for stakeholders. This capability enhances collaboration among organisations. Consequently, it leads to faster responses in infrastructure monitoring and disaster relief efforts.

    The nationwide expansion of Operation Dronagiri will follow a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model. This strategy mirrors the successful deployment of the Unified Payments Interface (UPI). Industry involvement will be vital in transforming the geospatial sector.
    
Importance of the Private Sector

    Dr. Srikant Sastri brought into light the private sector’s role in making geospatial data accessible. Startups will contribute to turning data into actionable solutions. The focus is on delivering socioeconomic benefits to communities.

Technological Innovation Hubs (TIHs)

    Professor K N Satyanarayana discussed the role of Technology Innovation Hubs (TIHs) in encouraging geospatial innovation. TIHs will accelerate the development and implementation of geospatial technologies. Their involvement is essential for driving growth in this sector.

    Operation Dronagiri represents a very important step in India’s journey toward becoming a global leader in geospatial technology. The initiative seeks to liberalise geospatial data and enhance infrastructure. Through these efforts, India aims to leverage geospatial innovations for public good.

  Dengue Surge Linked to Climate Change      Dengue fever cases are at record levels worldwide, with studies linking 19% of the rise to climate change, which is expected to worsen by 2050. Predictions indicate a potential 40-60% rise in cases, with some areas facing increases of 150-200%. Current Global Context      Recently, nearly 12 million dengue cases were reported in the Americas. This marks an important rise from 4.6 million in 2023. Locally acquired infections have emerged in California and Florida. India is also experiencing a surge in cases. Research Findings      Researchers from Stanford and Harvard conducted a study on dengue incidence. They analyzed data from 21 countries in Asia and the Americas. The results show a direct correlation between rising temperatures and increasing dengue infections.      Dengue can cause mild to severe symptoms. Severe cases may lead to bleeding and shock. There are no specif...

  Clean Ganga Mission to Start Dolphin Ambulance      The National Mission for Clean Ganga (NMCG) is actively promoting conservation efforts and targeting the Ganga River’s biodiversity. They focus particularly on endangered species like the Ganga Dolphin . Recent developments include the introduction of a Dolphin Ambulance. This vehicle will aid in rescuing injured dolphins, which are crucial to the river’s ecosystem. Dolphin Ambulance Initiative      The Dolphin Ambulance project is titled Advancing Rescue System for the Protection of Stranded Ganges River Dolphins, which has a budget of Rs 1 crore. The ambulance will provide immediate care to injured dolphins. The initiative aims to enhance public awareness about dolphin conservation. Training will be provided to local communities. This training focuses on the effective management of dolphin-related issues. Additional Conservation Projects      NMCG has approved several other proje...
