GISE Hub aims to enhance interdisciplinary and collaborative research in geospatial information sciences and engineering with a special focus on extension, i.e., of reproducible teaching content and engagement, so as to enable the transfer and deployment of technologies and software developed. It allows for a multi-pronged approach that enables problem solving based on geospatial technologies. After receiving overwhelming responses for the call for proposals, GISE hub has funded 15 projects for the year 1 and 13 projects for year 2.
Following are the details of the year 2 funded projects:
