Dear Colleagues,

India’s exposure to multiple hazards floods, cyclones, earthquakes, landslides, forest fires, drought, lightning, and heatwaves calls for robust, science-driven early warning and response systems. Geographic Information Systems (GIS), supported by remote sensing, AI, and other emerging technologies, are proving indispensable in disaster risk reduction, enabling timely alerts, informed decisions, and community-centered resilience.

Recognizing the importance of advancing GIS-enabled solutions, Sphere India Academy invites you to join the thematic webinar:
