Adding to this, Mr. Agendra Kumar, President, Esri India said, “GIS technology has been gaining momentum in the country. Government departments have been using GIS very extensively; we now see more private enterprises realizing the benefits of using GIS. With the demand for GIS skills coming from both private and government sectors, it is imperative to impart geospatial knowledge to the next generation right from the school level. With this in mind, we at Esri India launched the K-12 program to conduct workshops and hands on training on Esri ArcGIS platform and Story Maps at schools.”
