We are presently focusing on developing an online course for engineering and allied disciplines, a joint research publication aimed for a peer-review journal and climate action projects.
Platial Mobility: a novel framework aims at advancing existing Geographical Information Systems
In collaboration with experts from Graz Institute of Technology, Austria, we have developed a new framework to advance Geographical Information Systems (GIS). This advancement includes the voice of individuals and collectives in maps. It is particularly amenable for crises including disasters, climate change impacts and public health threats such as epidemics and pandemics.
