Congratulations to your team. Kerala State is one of the states which is on top of implementing/promoting FOSS in India. We are looking forward for more technical details on the project. Is there any document that can be shared with the community?<br>

We are proud to share with you that Keltron, a PSU under government of<br>
Kerala, has completed development of an integrated, GIS based total<br>
solution for Kolkata Police. This consists of,<br>
Development of Large scale map of the area<br>
A GIS based area traffic control system<br>
Vehicle Tracking system<br>
GIS based distress call response management system etc<br>
<br>
The complete solution is developed purely on Free and Open Source<br>
solutions, including PostGIS, OpenLayers, Mapserver, GRASS &<br>
Geodjango. Technology demonstration and pilot run for all modules are<br>
over and large scale deployment is going on. AFAIK, this is the<br>
biggest FOSS Geo initiative in India, and one of the major GIS project<br>
in the government sector. I hope this project will help us in bringing<br>
other projects also into the FOSS way.<br>
<br>
Thanks to OSGeo. The very existence of the Foundation helped us to<br>
convince our client that FOSS Geo tools are matured, and are actively<br>
supported. We also thank the user and developer community around the<br>
major FOSS tools, for their fast response to our questions and<br>
clarifications.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks & Regards,<br>
<br>
Sajith VK<br>
