Electric vehicles (EVs) have gained traction in recent years as a clean, energy-efficient alternative to traditional gasoline-powered vehicles. Governments and private organisations are investing in EV infrastructure as an environmentally friendly, cost-effective transport alternative. With GIS data, we get useful insights about distribution of EV charging stations, patterns of EV use, and growth opportunities. This […]
The world has witnessed exponential growth in electric vehicle sales. This is because of wider model availability, improved range, and increased performance over the years. The global electric car stock reached the 10 million mark in 2020 – a 43% increase after 2019. Moreover, around 3 million cars were registered in the same year, which […]
Electric vehicles (EVs) have been increasingly gaining popularity due to their numerous benefits over traditional gasoline-powered cars. One such advantage is the reduced carbon footprint, making them a more sustainable transportation option. From 2012 to 2021, a total of 17 million electric vehicles (including both all-electric and plug-in hybrid models) were purchased globally. Predictions indicate […]
The electric vehicle is the future of transportation. It is one of the most eco-friendly and user-friendly models available today. It has lower costs, better speeds, and is very good for the environment. But there needs to be careful planning for mass usage of EVs. Electric vehicles, as you can guess, runs on electricity. So […]
We have been trying to accurately predict disasters for decades. Starting from weather predictions to years-long climate changes, technology has come a long way. With the help of GIS mapping tools, we are able to accurately predict and mitigate natural disasters. In recent years, with the emergence of cloud technology, GIS cloud in disaster management […]
Integrating renewable energy into EV or electric vehicle charging infrastructure is an integral part of the electric vehicle revolution. There is ongoing research in finding eco-friendly ways to build and maintain EV charging stations. Using renewable energy resources such as solar panels and wind energy is widely considered. A Geographic Information System (GIS) is essential […]
Smart cities has become a buzzword in recent years. It represents the integration of technology, data, and innovation to improve citizens’ quality of life. With rapid urbanization, there is an increasing demand for sustainable and efficient cities, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) play a crucial role in the planning and implementation of smart cities. GIS provides valuable […]
Electric vehicles (EVs) are rapidly growing popular as a clean and sustainable mode of transportation. But EV route optimization is a big challenge for the government. Maximising efficiency and minimising emissions through careful EV route planning is essential. With advanced data gathering and analysis technology, this is possible. Geographic Information System (GIS) is one such […]
Visualize the equipment required for space exploration. Did you think of complex, large machinery with lots of switches and mechanisms? Us too. But in reality, scientists use advanced technologies like geographic information systems or GIS in astronomy to explore the solar system and the universe beyond. Geographic Information Science and Technology (GIST), has wide applications […]
The planning and construction of buildings and other physical structures are crucial for the growth of a country’s economy. This is because architects have used their skills to shape the physical layout of several institutional and domestic settings. To better serve one’s clients, it’s helpful to have a working knowledge of GIS technology. The study […]
