Adventure of Ground survey in Antarctica | Opportunity in Geo Spatial Innovation #105

Pankaj Mishra, Deputy Surveyor General of India. The highlight is his personal stories from the field—surviving Antarctica’s extremes and navigating the challenges of diverse terrains. He Shares updates from the event, including key initiatives launched in geospatial innovation and opportunities for startups. We discuss the technology behind Google Maps, innovative ideas for leveraging mobile phones for mapping, and the work being done at the National Institute for Geo-Informatics Science and Technology (NIGST), Hyderabad.

This special podcast was recorded at IIT Delhi during the Underwater Navigation Seminar, where I represented IIT Tirupati. The event brought together officials from the Indian Navy, innovative startups, and top government officials to discuss the future of underwater navigation and geospatial advancements.
