Expected impacts By liberalizing the system, the government will ensure more players in the field, the competitiveness of Indian companies in the global market, and more accurate data available to both the government to formulate plans and administer, but also for individual Indians. Startups and businesses can now also use this data in setting up their concerns, especially in the sector of e-commerce or geospatial based apps - which in turn will increase employment in these sectors. Indian companies will be able to develop indigenous apps, for example, an Indian version of Google maps. There is also likely to be an increase in public-private partnerships with the opening of this sector with data collection companies working with the Indian government on various sectoral projects. The government also expects an increase in investment in the geospatial sector by companies, and also an increase in export of data to foreign companies and countries, which in turn will boost the economy. 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁 Join >> @dailynewscom

Govt liberalized Geospatial Data Policy In sweeping changes to the country's mapping policy, the government has announced liberalisation of norms governing the acquisition and production of geospatial data. Q.What do you mean by Geo-Spatial Data? What are its economic and strategic significance? What is the news? The Ministry of Science and Technology has released new guidelines for the Geo-spatial sector in India. It deregulated the existing protocol and liberalizes the sector to a more competitive field. What is a Geo-Spatial Data? Geospatial data is data about objects, events, or phenomena that have a location on the surface of the earth. The location may be static in the short-term, like the location of a road, an earthquake event, malnutrition among children, or dynamic like a moving vehicle or pedestrian, the spread of an infectious disease. Geospatial data combines location information, attribute information, and often also temporal information or the time at which the location and attributes exist. Geo-spatial data usually involves information of public interest such as roads, localities, rail lines, water bodies, and public amenities. The past decade has seen an increase in the use of geospatial data in daily life with various apps such as food delivery apps like Swiggy or Zomato, e-commerce like Amazon or even weather apps. What is the present policy on geospatial data? There are strict restrictions on the collection, storage, use, sale, dissemination of geo-spatial data and mapping under the current regime. The policy had not been renewed in decades and has been driven by internal as well as external security concerns. Private companies need to navigate a system of permissions from different departments of the government as well as the defence and Home Ministries, to be able to collect, create or disseminate geospatial data. Why has the government deregulated geospatial data? This system of acquiring licenses or permission, and the red tape involved, can take months, delaying projects, especially those that are in mission mode - for both Indian companies as well as government agencies. The deregulation eliminates the requirement of permissions as well as scrutiny, even for security concerns. Indian companies now can self-attest, conforming to government guidelines without actually having to be monitored by a government agency- these guidelines, therefore, place a great deal of trust in Indian entities. There is also a huge lack of data in the country which impedes planning for infrastructure, development and businesses which are data-based. The mapping of the entire country that too with high accuracy, by the Indian government alone could take decades. The government, therefore, felt an urgent need to incentivise the geospatial sector for Indian companies and increased investment from private players in the sector. Large amounts of geospatial data are also available on global platforms, which makes the regulation of data that is freely available in other countries, untenable. What next? While for decades, geospatial data has been a priority for strategic reasons and for internal and external security concerns. This priority has seen a shift in the past 15 years - geospatial data has now become imperative for the government in planning for infrastructure, development, social development as well as the economy. More and more sectors such as agriculture, environment protection, power, water, transportation, communication, health (tracking of diseases, patients, hospitals etc) are relying heavily on this data. There has also been a global push for open access to geospatial as it affects the lives of ordinary citizens.

Farakka ‘lock’ and Hilsa Fish It has been reported that an old project to facilitate the movement of Hilsa upstream along the Ganga to its spawning grounds of yore may come to fruition this year. What is the news? Back in February 2019, the government had unveiled a project to redesign the navigation lock at the Farakka Barrage at a cost of Rs 360 crore to create a "fish pass" for the Hilsa. Hilsa Fish In scientific parlance, the Hilsa (Tenualosa ilisha) is an anadromous fish. It lives most of its life in the ocean, but during the rainy season, the Hilsa moves towards the estuary, where the rivers of India and Bangladesh meet the Bay of Bengal. A large part of the shoal travels upstream in the Padma and the Ganga some are known to move towards the Godavari, and there are records of Hilsa migration to the Cauvery. Culinary lore has it that the fish that travel the farthest upstream have the best combination of the flavours of the sea and the river. Obstructions created by Farakka Barrage Historical records also show that until the 1970s, the Hilsa would swim the Ganga upstream to Allahabad and even to Agra. But the Farakka Barrage, which became operational on the Ganga in 1975, disrupted the westward movement of the Hilsa. The barrage had a navigation lock that stopped the fish from swimming upstream beyond Farakka. In Buxar on the border of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, the last recorded catch of the Hilsa was made 32 years ago. The role of the Farakka Barrage in disrupting the Hilsa's journey is well documented and has been discussed in Parliament as well. On August 4, 2016, then Union Water Resources Minister told Lok Sabha about plans to create "fish ladders" to help the fish navigate the obstacle posed by the barrage. Fish ladders/fishways/fish passes Fish passes also known as fish ladders or fishways aim to assist fish in crossing obstacles presented by dams and barrages. They usually consist of small steps that allow the fish to climb over the obstacles and enable them to reach the open waters on the other side. 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁 Join >> @dailynewscom
