Greening and Restoration of Wastelands with Agroforestry (GROW):

Greening and Restoration of Wasteland with Agroforestry (GROW) report and portal was launched by NITI Aayog on 12 Feb 2024. The Greening and Restoration of Wasteland with Agroforestry (GROW)-Suitability Mapping portal allows universal access to state and district-level data. Currently, agroforestry covers 8.65% of India's total geographical area, totalling about 28.42 million hectares. Current report underscores the potential benefits of converting underutilized areas, especially wastelands, for agroforestry. The GROW initiative aligns with national commitments, aiming to restore 26 million hectares of degraded land by 2030 and create an additional carbon sink of 2.5 to 3 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent

Latest High Resolution Data Update - Cartosat-2S satellite

A new high-resolution country mosaic of the Indian region has been created using multispectral satellite data from the Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) Cartosat-2E, 2C, 2D, and 2F satellites, and has been updated on the Bhuvan EO portal. The images were acquired between 2024 and 2022. The data has been orthorectified, achieving a planimetric accuracy of approximately CE90 5m, and processed at a spatial resolution of 1.5m. This country-level mosaic prepared using about 40,000 scenes, is in Natural Colour Composite (NCC), with contrast enhancement and radiometric balancing applied. The data can be accessed on the Bhuvan EO portal through the "Data Hub" mode by selecting "HR Data (1m)" and the "2024-22" checkbox.
