From agriculture to automotive, and defense to retail, Gurugram-based Heliware offers customized solutions across sectors.
Heliware was founded in 2018 to develop a more advanced and user-friendly 3D GIS platform. In a few years, the company became a leading platform known for its high-quality 3D visualization and ability to handle large amounts of data.
“We wanted to create a large-scale, easy-to-use data analytics and visualization platform accessible to everyone, not just GIS professionals”, says Rajan Srivastava, Founder & CEO, Heliware in an interview with Geospatial World.
Who are your main partners and clients, and what kind of mapping services do you provide?
Some of our prominent clients include NTPC in energy, KPTL & L&T in construction, Maruti in automobile, DRDO in defense, Renew in Solar, and GFK of Singapore in Market Research.
Heliware established the feasibility of sustainably increasing agricultural productivity and farmer incomes through a distinct agricultural development approach with Focus (Fostering Climate Resilient Upland Farming Systems in Mizoram) Mizoram. The solution we provided was web-based GIS Analysis 3D data visualization via Geo AI.
Also, the various manufacturing plants of Maruti required flood risk management for which we provided annotation & measurement, 3D analytics, flood mapping, and cut & fill analysis.
Climate change has been a burning issue for the better part of a decade now. Yet, a lot needs to be done to curb the emissions and contain the negative effects. Having worked on solar energy projects, where do you think India stands on the green transition?
India has made substantial progress in its green transition, particularly in the realm of solar energy. Over the past decade, India has witnessed a remarkable expansion of its solar energy capacity, driven by government initiatives like the National Solar Mission.
Heliware’s expertise in GIS has likely contributed to this growth by optimizing the selection of solar project locations, progress monitoring during the plant’s construction and pre, and post-sales monitoring.
The Indian government’s support through policies, subsidies, and tax incentives has further bolstered renewable energy adoption. Heliware’s GIS solutions have likely facilitated project development by navigating the regulatory landscape effectively.
Additionally, technological advancements in solar energy, improved resource assessment through GIS, and international collaborations to address climate change have all shaped India’s green transition.
What are the new platforms and services that Heliware is working on and what is the roadmap ahead for the company?
It’s crucial for us to maintain a strong commitment to safety, quality, and customer satisfaction. Regularly assess and adjust the roadmap based on market dynamics, technological advancements, and feedback from customers and stakeholders.
By staying adaptable and forward-thinking, Heliware can remain a leader in the industry while making positive contributions to sustainability and innovation.
We will allocate resources for advanced research and development projects aimed at developing cutting-edge technology and solutions. Additionally, we are also exploring partnerships with research institutions and universities to tap into emerging technologies.
For 2024, we have envisioned a diversified product and service portfolio to meet a broader range of industry needs.
We will continue expanding into international markets, establishing regional offices or partnerships to better serve local customers, and build strategic alliances.
