Geospatial intelligence is the silent backbone guiding national decisions, powering defense operations, infrastructure growth, and enterprise transformation. For decades, India has relied on expensive foreign GIS products, often tied with export restrictions, data control concerns, and high licensing fees. But the landscape is changing.
A new era of Indigenous GIS innovation is rising in India.
At the forefront stands PrithviGIS.
Built 100% on open-source technologies like QGIS (2D GIS) and CesiumJS (3D globe visualization), PrithviGIS is shaping India’s self-reliant geospatial future.
What is PrithviGIS?
PrithviGIS is a modern, high-performance Geographic Information System designed and developed by Manya Technologies, India. It blends:
✔ QGIS for powerful 2D mapping, spatial analytics & data processing
✔ CesiumJS for realistic 3D visualization and live situational awareness
Whether tracking aircraft in real time, planning troop movements, monitoring infrastructure, or analyzing terrain, PrithviGIS delivers full-stack GIS capability with advanced visualization.
Key Features
PrithviGIS is designed for mission-critical environments:
• 2D & 3D integrated display
• Real-time radar & sensor track visualization
• PostgreSQL/PostGIS database sync
• Temporal playback for time-dependent analysis
• Mission planning and route design tools
• Offline operation for secure, isolated networks
• Custom symbology, tactical overlays, geo-fencing
• Supports all standard GIS vector & raster formats
• Cross-platform: Windows & Linux
• Fully customizable for defense and enterprise workflows
Powered by the Strength of Open-Source
PrithviGIS stands on the shoulders of the world’s most trusted open-source geospatial stacks:
• QGIS – Global leader in desktop GIS
• PostgreSQL/PostGIS – Enterprise-grade spatial database
• CesiumJS – Top 3D earth visualization platform
• GDAL/OGR – Robust geospatial data drivers
This open foundation means:
✅ Zero vendor lock-in
✅ Security transparency (full source code audit possible)
✅ Unlimited customization for Indian-specific requirements
✅ Cost-effective deployment across large organizations
Strategic Advantages for Defence Forces
Foreign GIS tools often carry invisible strings:
Data sovereignty risks, export control, and operational dependency.
PrithviGIS eliminates those concerns.
✔ Deployed in air-gapped networks
✔ Connects to indigenous sensors and data formats
✔ Supports tactical operations and situational awareness
✔ Scalable from command centers to field units
✔ Rapid integration with radar, tracking & simulators
It ensures India’s defense decisions are built on Indian technology, Indian data, and Indian control.
Boosting Enterprise & Smart Governance
Beyond defense, PrithviGIS empowers:
• Smart Cities
• Oil & Gas and Utilities
• Railways and Highways
• Mining and Infrastructure
• Disaster Management
Enterprises retain full control over their maps and analytics while reducing licensing burdens.
Fueling Aatmanirbhar Bharat and Make in India
PrithviGIS is not just software. It is a strategic movement.
It accelerates:
✔ Indigenous technology ecosystem
✔ Indian jobs and R&D
✔ Reduced foreign dependency
✔ Export potential for geospatial solutions
✔ Self-reliance in critical infrastructure planning
Every deployment of PrithviGIS strengthens India’s sovereignty in geospatial intelligence.
Conclusion: India’s GIS Future is Indigenous
