Uttar Pradesh Plans Statewide House Mapping and Land Geotagging

Officials in Uttar Pradesh met in Lucknow to discuss how space technology can help the state.

They want to map every house and mark the location of every piece of land.

This could help people know where their fields begin and end and help settle land disputes.

House maps could also help officials work out house taxes.

The state’s science and technology minister said these tools could help farming and prepare for floods and droughts.

He also pointed to possible uses in health, education, roads, bridges, and canals.

Experts and companies shared technology ideas at the two-day workshop.

Officials also discussed using artificial intelligence with space technology.
