Abstract: Back in 2015, the government of India launched the smart Cities Mission (SCM) as a response to the fast-packed rural to urban movement of the country's population. The National Commission on Population (NCP) predicts that 38.6% of the Indian population will be living in the urban areas in the next 13 years. The initiatives surrounding smart cities are developing int efficient and direct discourses to cultivate sustainable, inclusive, and accessible spaces.

Abstract: Today, a large fleet of satellites and systems are assisting the armed forces to plan, manage and execute their operations efficiently. Effective monitoring of long borders and extensive areas require capturing images at large swath and high-resolution image with image processing and analytics in orbit solutions, contributing to the armed forces' decision-making process and enhancing ground operations. However, monitoring for a large country like India has a particular set of challenges.

Abstract: To a great extent, states decide their foreign policy posture and national development priorities based on where they are located, as is illustrated by the title of Tim Marshal book 'Prisoners of Geography'. For India, the context of South Asia-unresolved border disputes with China and Pakistan, both nuclear states in its eastern and western flanks-renders geographic context extremely relevant and strategic in terms of capacity building in civilian as well as military domain.

Abstract: The 2030 Agenda for sustainable development, with its ambitious 17 goals and 169 targets, aims to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all. However, the success of these goals and targets would depend on developing the rural areas where most of the world's poor live. More resources would need to be allocated for investment in rural areas, not just because that is where most of the poor live but also because these areas have a great potential for economic development (SOFA 2017). The rural population worldwide is vulnerable to livelihood shocks and climate variability.

Abstract: Militarisation of space is inevitable as technology empowers space and the cyber domains to control the outcome on the battle ground. The future of warfare is being shaped by cutting-edge and transformational technologies. Space is now influencing how the battles would be fought on the ground, making current land-based systems and traditional technologies relatively redundant.

Abstract: In the time/space conflation of geography and humanity, this is particularly significant moment to reflect on Indigenous mapping. Year 1492 ushered in an explosion in spatial exploration beyond Europe: a "New World" was revealed, and the age of colonization of the Americas began. The Papal Bulls of Pope Alexander VI, the Doctrine of Discovery, and the notion of Terra Nullius set the stage for dispossession and subjugation. Today, Pope Francis represents Indigenous People to the global stage, with his historical apology to the delegation of First People from Canada.

Abstract: On February 24, 2022, after months of speculation and conjecture, Russia invaded Ukraine. For many, it was a moment of deja vu-the visuals of burning cars, desecrated buildings, empty roads and panicked citizens scrambling for safety evoked memories of similar scenes of horror from Syria where years of political unrest had escalated into in unending saga of death, destruction and despair in 2011.The Syrian conflict, which went on for many years, had led to one of the worst refugee situations in the world.

Abstract: GHG Sat's global methane monitoring map of the world looks like angry blotches of red paint sprayed on the canvas. Unfortunately, that is not an artist's imagination. The red is methane emissions. Methane, which is the second most abundant greenhouse gas (GHG) found in the atmosphere after carbon dioxide (CO2) and is more than 25 times as potent in trapping heat.

Abstract: If a man's face is his autobiography and a woman's face is her work of fiction, as oscar Wide wrote, then a country's face is nothing but its map. Cartography-or the science of map-making-is among the earliest human endeavors to chart out the world and understand it. The spirit of human ingenuity, unquenchable zeal, and the desire to make sense of the broader world and connect with it led to this. Maps have accompanied the rise and fall of empires, the discovery of new lands, and the drawing of boundaries, along with vanishing of the old, and forging of the new. They have been central to the human story, in its sublime beauty as well as dismaying horror.

Abstract: SIR, In the recent issue of the Indian Forester, for May 1923, in an article entitled"A Visit to the Forest Research Institute, Dehra Dun,"Mr. R.P Dalley makes the following statement: - "Another important discovery which will bring in lakhs of revenue to Government is the discovery, by Dr. Simonsen, the Forest Chemist, the catalytic action of pyrogallol in preventing the oxidation of Indian turpentine. As a result of this discovery it will now be possible to advertise Indian Turpentine, Grade I, as equal in quality to the best American. The discovery will cost practically nothing to put into operation but will make a marked difference to the revenue budgets of the Resin factories.
