CEPT Conference

Civil Engineering in India

A platform for engineers to probe the multi-faceted world of civil engineering, transforming India's urban landscape.

26 November 2024
Ahmedabad, Gujarat

The Second Edition of the CEPT Conference on Civil Engineering In India, themed Geospatial Technologies for Infrastructure!

Unlocking the Future of Infrastructure through Geospatial Innovation.

India is undergoing a massive infrastructure transformation, fueled by ambitious government initiatives like the Smart Cities Mission, Digital India, and the expansion of national highways and railways. At the heart of these developments are geospatial technologies—encompassing Geographic Information Systems (GIS), remote sensing, and satellite imagery. These technologies are revolutionising how infrastructure projects are planned, executed, and managed, offering powerful tools to optimise efficiency and sustainability.

This conference on Geospatial Technologies for Infrastructure aims to bring together key industry leaders, policymakers, academics, and technology experts. Together, they will explore the latest innovations, trends, and challenges in integrating geospatial technologies into large-scale infrastructure projects.

Join us to shape the future of India’s infrastructure through the innovative use of geospatial technologies!
