🌏 Heliware – AI‑Powered 3D Geospatial Analytics Platform

Heliware: India’s AI-Powered 3D Geospatial Analytics Platform Revolutionizing Smart Infrastructure

Bengaluru, September 2025 – In a landmark development for India’s deep-tech ecosystem, Heliware has launched the country’s first AI-powered 3D geospatial analytics platform, setting a new benchmark in precision mapping, urban planning, and environmental monitoring. Combining satellite imagery, drone data, LiDAR scans, and proprietary AI models, Heliware enables enterprises and governments to create hyper-accurate digital twins of real-world environments—transforming decision-making in infrastructure, disaster management, and climate resilience.

The Geospatial Revolution: Why It Matters

1. The Global Geospatial Boom

The global geospatial analytics market is projected to reach $256 billion by 2030, driven by demand from smart cities, defense, and climate tech sectors. India, with its rapid urbanization and vulnerability to climate disasters, represents a $12 billion opportunity—yet until now, most high-resolution geospatial processing relied on foreign software like ESRI ArcGIS or Google Earth Engine.

2. India’s Geospatial Policy Push

• 2021 Geospatial Deregulation: Opened doors for private players to collect and process high-resolution maps.
• 2023 National Digital Twin Mission: Mandated 3D urban models for 100+ cities.
• 2025 AI in Infrastructure Policy: Allocated ₹2,000 crore for AI-powered geospatial solutions.

Heliware is India’s answer to this demand—a sovereign, scalable, and AI-native geospatial platform.

How Heliware Works: AI Meets Geospatial Intelligence

1. Multi-Sensor Data Fusion

Heliware integrates:

• Satellite Imagery (ISRO’s Bhuvan + private providers)
• Drone Surveys (sub-5cm resolution)
• LiDAR Scans (for elevation and structural depth)
• IoT Feeds (real-time traffic, weather, and pollution data)

Example: During the 2025 Mumbai floods, Heliware’s fusion model predicted waterlogging hotspots 48 hours in advance, enabling preemptive evacuation.

2. AI-Powered 3D Digital Twins

Unlike traditional 2D GIS, Heliware constructs dynamic 3D models that update in near-real-time. Key features:

• Auto-Classification: AI identifies buildings, roads, water bodies, and vegetation.
• Change Detection: Flags illegal construction or deforestation.
• Simulation Engine: Tests “what-if” scenarios (e.g., new highway impact).

Case Study: Adani Ports reduced coastal erosion risks in Vizhinjam, Kerala, by 37% using Heliware’s predictive models.

3. Speed & Scalability

Key Applications: Where Heliware is Making an Impact

1. Smart Cities & Urban Planning

• Mumbai Municipal Corp: Uses Heliware to optimize traffic signals, reducing congestion by 22%.
• Chennai Master Plan 2040: Digital twin simulations guiding new metro routes.

2. Disaster Resilience

• NDMA Partnership: Predicts landslide risks in Uttarakhand with 92% accuracy.
• Flood Forecasting: Integrated with Central Water Commission for real-time alerts.

3. Defense & Security

• Border Surveillance: AI detects unauthorized construction near Line of Actual Control (LAC).
• Critical Infrastructure Protection: Monitors pipelines, power grids, and naval bases.

4. Climate & Agriculture

• Forest Health Monitoring: Tracks illegal logging in Assam’s rainforests.
• Precision Farming: Analyzes soil moisture for 500K+ farmers via state govt. partnerships.

The Competitive Edge: Why Heliware Stands Out

1. Built for India’s Terrain

• Trained on local geological, urban, and climatic data—unlike Western tools.
• Supports 12 Indian languages for rural governance use.

2. Affordable & Scalable

• Subscription model at 1/3rd the cost of global competitors.
• API integrations for startups and enterprises.

3. Strategic Backing

• Funded by AIM Smart Cities Mission and Qualcomm Ventures.
• Tech partnerships with ISRO, DRDO, and NVIDIA.

Challenges & the Road Ahead

1. Data Privacy Concerns

• Balancing high-resolution mapping with individual privacy remains a debate.

2. GPU Dependency

• Requires massive AI compute—currently using AWS and NVIDIA clusters.

3. Global Expansion

• Pilots in ASEAN and Africa by 2026.

Conclusion: A New Era of Geospatial Intelligence

Heliware is not just a tool—it’s a paradigm shift in how India manages its land, infrastructure, and environment. With 10+ government contracts and 50+ enterprise clients, it’s poised to become a global geospatial leader by 2030.
