GeoInfra Introduction: As the developing nations face unique challenges with the design, construction and operations of existing as well as new infrastructure, various advanced technologies gain importance to develop the cities and bring in efficiency in the work. Geospatial technology is one of the key enabling technologies being used in overall planning, deployment, delivery, maintenance, and management of the infrastructure. It is important for infrastructure managers to constantly evaluate the evolving technology options in order to implement the right solutions. The swift advancement and the evolvement of the geospatial technology has transformed its usage across various verticals in India. The need and intricacy to effectively manage India’s infrastructure has become a priority for the government. To accomplish the set target, India’s Planning Commission has projected an investment of $1 trillion (nearly Rs 45 lakh crore) for infrastructure development during the 12th Plan (2012-17). For sustaining the current economic growth, there is a necessity to make available and provide the required infrastructure and for that, Geospatial technology is one only tool that would help in efficient and speedy development.

About GeoInfra:

GeoInfra aims to focus broadly on the development aspect of Transport and Construction & Engineering and provide a clear picture of latest geospatial technologies and its applications. This conference will explore the complementary roles of government, private industry and the academic community in realizing better means for sharing geographic data and technologies to develop the infrastructure for meeting real world needs. It will identify the cutting edge technologies and integrated applications in efficiently delivering the services, assist in the formulation of appropriate strategies, and facilitate the development of interdisciplinary approach.

GeoInfa offers an opportunity to meet top government officials, architects, construction engineers, consultants and decision–makers in the infrastructure industry from all over India.
