Unique Identification Project

Unique Identification Project
==========================

This is the step taken by Union goverment to give unique identity proofs to residents of India. This identity will have basic information of the residents of india. When the resident enrolls, basic information of will be collected and will be give a number( not a card). However, this number will not have any intelligence/sensitive information,thus avoids any identity thefts.



BENEFITs
=========
(1) Obtaining the address proofs for Driving License,passports etc will be easy
(2)This will help in improving the delivery of Cental and state flagship program. As lack of identity proof results in harrassement and some case denial of services
(3)It will save Gov. Exchequer by avoiding leakages in Govt programmes.

This is to be noted that one such programme has already been introduced by Election Commission in 1993 and planned to provide Photo Identity card to voters. This programme resulted large burden on Government cosidering the population of india.
This is right step taken from Goverment to give unique no,s which has multiple benefits.But the programme needs to be executed professionally and in phased manner.

Bhuvan, is satellite mapping tool

Bhuvan, is satellite mapping tool similar to Google earth and wikimapia. This is designed by ISRO. Bhuvan uses Indian Remote Sensing satellites and gives exceptionally superior quality picture of India compared to any other visual globe tool.

This gives better resolution of India and cleared of all sensitive details for security concern. Along with this has other tools such as weather monitoring, disaster mapping-flood and draught affected area mapping and also helps in district administration as it maps the district boundaries of all states of India.

National Remote Sensing Agency played an important role in the creation of this product. ISRO has used data provided by satellites including Resourcesat-1, Cartosat-1 and Cartosat-2 to get the best possible imagery for India both in 2D and 3D view.
