Significance of Spectral Indexes in Accurate Vegetation Analysis

Many sensors carried aboard satellites measure red and near-infrared light waves reflected by land surfaces. Using mathematical formulas (algorithms), one can transform raw satellite data about these light waves into vegetation indices. A vegetation index is an indicator that describes the greenness i.e. the relative density and health of vegetation, for each pixel in a… Continue reading Significance of Spectral Indexes in Accurate Vegetation Analysis

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Geo-intelligence using GIS

Over the last decade, there have been a major integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and geographic information systems (GIS). While GIS is a powerful technology with extensive data sets and a wide range of AI applications, artificial intelligence provides advanced methods for GIS projects. AI GIS is an amalgamation of AI technology and various GIS processes,… Continue reading Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Geo-intelligence using GIS

Meteor Strike over Russia: Was it the first?

On Feb 15 early morning, a meteor darted across the sky above Russia’s Ural Mountain range. The fireball exploded near  Chelyabinsk, injuring hundreds of people, creating a sonic boom and damaging hundreds of buildings and causing injuries to thousands of people. The injuries were mainly from the falling glass and other building material taken apart… Continue reading Meteor Strike over Russia: Was it the first?

Environmental Health and Geospatial Technology

"The greatest wealth is health" isn't it so true? Environmental health The science of preventing diseases, prolonging human life and promoting human health through an organized effort is called public health. Environmental health is a branch of public health. When we talk about the impact of environment on human health we are considering both natural… Continue reading Environmental Health and Geospatial Technology

Digital Twin – An Emerging Technology for Geospatial World

Our world is changing and becoming high – tech. Everything is being abstracted and modelled by digital twins. They use automation to improve business processes, reduce risk, maximise operational efficiencies, and improve decision-making by predicting outcomes. By establishing relationships and standardising workflows, digital twins add information to the solution of business problems. GIS (geographic information… Continue reading Digital Twin – An Emerging Technology for Geospatial World
