REPL bags order from TN government

According to REPL, this assignment aligns with the Tamil Nadu government's strategic commitment to fostering planned, sustainable urban growth by utilising advanced GIS technology to enhance efficiency, resilience, and livability in cities. REPL will conduct a detailed assessment of the existing conditions and identify development trends at the regional level, involving a comprehensive analysis of current development patterns, recognising gaps and opportunities, and formulating strategic recommendations for both current and future development.

Pradeep Misra, Chairman and Managing Director of REPL, remarked that the GIS-based master plans present a critical opportunity to guide sustainable growth within these planning areas, with a holistic approach encompassing disaster management, housing, infrastructure, and economic development.
