How govt data ends up in private hands

A former employee of the Karnataka State Remote Sensing Application Centre has been accused of misusing the data and maps for developing a mobile app for his company. Prabhuraj filed a complaint with the north east division cyber crime police on Sunday seeking legal action. Mr. Prabhuraj said that the accused, a former employee identified Virendra Patil, was working with the centre between May 2021 and December 2022 as an application developer. During this period, he had access to data and maps meant for the survey settlement department and after he quit the job, he started his own company company and used the data to develop a mobile app using the stolen data under the banner “Know your land.” The misuse of data came to light recently and after verifying the facts to confirm, Mr. Prabhuraj filed a complaint with the police.
