Dear Bhuvan User,

At the outset, we thank all our users for their patronage and keen interest in exploring ISRO's Geoportal - Bhuvan.

As you are aware, Bhuvan (www.bhuvan.nrsc.gov.in) is poised with a vision to be a one-stop versatile Indian Earth Observation visualization system evincing the Indian imaging capabilities.

Bhuvan has now got a new refreshing look and feel with loads of informative features and intuitive tools.

The new 'Bhuvan 3D' provides many new interesting features such as Community Tool for collaborative mapping , Add Content for incorporating Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI), Data Sharing for scholarly research available to other users/investigators, Developers API for rapid customization on Bhuvan, Live Navigation reference maps, a comprehensive user guide and many more easy to use responsive and intuitive tools. (read more at www.bhuvan.nrsc.gov.in/features.aspx)

Apart from being able to access, explore and visualize the multi-sensor, multi-resolution, multi-temporal IRS imagery in the 3D landscape, a bundle of rich thematic information is being offered as services.

This new and refurbished Bhuvan also comes with a new Bhuvan 2D web mapping service, which contains detailed imagery and embedded map data. Bhuvan 2D works on all platform and does not need any plug-in software. For the moment, the 2D version is under testing and will be continuously enhanced. Take it for a test drive and let us know what you think.

Please feel free to write to us at bhu...@nrsc.gov.in for any query related to our portal and its services. We again thank you for your overwhelming response and look forward to your valuable comments/suggestions.

We wish you a happy 'flying' on Bhuvan!

Team Bhuvan
National Remote Sensing Centre,ISRO
Hyderabad,INDIA.
