Minister of State (I/C) for Housing and Urban Affairs Hardeep S Puri inaugurated India Urban Observatory and a Video Wall in Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MOHUA).
About:
India Urban Observatory: The state-of-the-art India Urban Observatory will plug the gap into the myriad sources of data from cities, both from real-time and archival sources.
Video Wall: The Video Wall will showcase the insights gained from the Observatory and the various Missions/ offices with the idea to proactively engage with citizens/ visitors in spreading awareness about the various initiatives of the Ministry.
Significance:
As cities begin to implement ‘smart’ solutions, data becomes a significant asset and enabler for data driven Governance, leading to urban transformation.
The India Urban Observatory would progressively become the chief data analysis and Management Hub of the Ministry.
It would enable evidence-based policy formulation, capacity building of ecosystem partners on data-driven governance, foster innovation through development of newer and better use cases thereby enabling solutions at scale and speed.
