ISRO, MapmyIndia team up to take on Google Maps/Earth

India TV News  

In a bid to take on Google Maps, the Indian Space Research Organisation and digital mapping and location-based deep-tech company MapmyIndia on Friday announced a new initiative to offer a fully indigenous, mapping portal and geospatial services. Through the combined partnership with ISRO, MapmyIndia's end-user maps, apps, and services would be a much better, more detailed, and comprehensive, as well as privacy-centric, hyper-local, and indigenous mapping solution for Indians, compared to foreign map apps and solutions, the company said. "This partnership with ISRO heralds a new dawn of Aatmanirbhar Bharat in the strategic area of maps and geospatial technologies," Rohan Verma, CEO & Executive Director, MapmyIndia, said in a statement. It will empower Indian scientists, academia, researchers, and government organisations with the best of India's satellite imagery, earth observation data, and digital map data, and advanced geospatial technologies, all combined together in a fully indigenous ISRO-MapmyIndia platform, the company added.
