<p Esri India has launched a powerful new tool called Bharat ENVI. This software enhances how we process and analyze geospatial images. It works seamlessly with Indo ArcGIS, making it easier for users to tap into advanced remote sensing analytics. This is a game-changer for better governance, effective economic planning, and sustainable development in India.
Bharat ENVI allows users to extract valuable insights from various data sources, like:
- Satellite imagery: It uses data from Landsat 8, Sentinel-1, and Sentinel-2.
- Advanced sensors: Including drone, LiDAR, SAR, multispectral, and hyperspectral sensors.
- Deep learning features: To identify water bodies, crops, settlements, mining pits, building footprints, and ships.
This software makes analyzing geographic and environmental features faster and more efficient. It automates the identification process, which is crucial for urban planning, agriculture, and resource management.
By integrating Bharat ENVI with Indo ArcGIS, users can access a wealth of localized datasets and AI models from the Indo ArcGIS Living Atlas. This means they can take full advantage of GIS capabilities and satellite analytics directly in their workflow. More than 1.2 million ArcGIS users across over 6,500 organizations in India can now use this technology to enhance their image processing capabilities.
The platform is designed to be user-friendly and suitable for both experts and newcomers. Its automated features help reduce the learning curve, making geospatial analysis more efficient and accurate. Agendra Kumar, Managing Director of Esri India, emphasized, “Bharat ENVI strengthens India’s geospatial ecosystem, enabling organizations to harness satellite imagery and AI-powered analytics for planning and sustainability.”
The impact of Bharat ENVI will be felt across various sectors:
- Resource management: It can help conduct more effective land use and resource management.
- Policy improvement: The tool aids in better policy implementation and governance.
- Sustainability monitoring: It enhances urban planning and sustainability efforts.
- Analytics support: Helps in agriculture, environmental studies, and maritime analytics.
With its advanced deep learning capabilities, Bharat ENVI is positioning India as a leader in the rapidly growing satellite data analytics market.
As of recent reports, India is expected to see a sharp increase in demand for geospatial technology, projected to grow by 12% in the next few years. This trend highlights the importance of solutions like Bharat ENVI in meeting future demands.
