New
Delhi, December, 2025.
Esri
India, a leader in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), today announced the
launch of ‘BharatENVI,’ a geospatial image processing and analysis
software. This launch of ‘Bharat ENVI’ brings world-class remote sensing
and analytics capabilities to ‘IndoArcGIS’ users, allowing them to make more
informed decisions for better governance and economic growth.
ENVI
has long been recognized worldwide as a leading solution for extracting
actionable insights from remote sensing data from various sources,including
satellite, drone, LiDAR, SAR, multispectral, and hyperspectral sensors. It is
tightly integrated with Esri’s ArcGIS platform and lets GIS users seamlessly
access and analyze imagery to solve critical problems with confidence.
Indian GIS
user organizations can now combine the power of Indo ArcGIS with Bharat
ENVI, leveraging the large repository of Indian content and AI models in‘Indo
ArcGIS Living Atlas’.This tightly integrated capability is crucial for a range
of activities, including land-use planning, resource management, and effective
policy implementation.
Bharat
ENVI also includes an essential toolset, accessible to both experts and new users.
This intuitive toolset allows satellite imagery users to automate the extraction
of features like water bodies, mining pits, crops, settlements, etc.,from
readily available satellite datasets, such as Landsat 8, Sentinel-2, and Sentinel-1. It is also capable of extracting building
footprints and detecting ships through advanced deep learning techniques.
Agendra
Kumar, Managing Director, Esri India, said,“The
introduction of Bharat ENVI strengthens the geospatial technology
ecosystem in the country. As organizations increasingly rely on satellite imagery
and remote sensing for planning, sustainability, and national development, BharatENVI’s
advanced analytics will significantly complement the capabilities of Indo ArcGIS,
widely used across India.”
The
availability of Bharat ENVI will enable more than 1.2 million ArcGIS
users from over 6500 organizations in India to access powerful ENVI image
processing tools directly within the ArcGIS environment, while benefiting from
localized datasets, analytical tools, and AI capabilities.
