Hexagon is engaged with some of the top development projects in India. Be it digitization of Land Management and Records, Dam monitoring, Railway's development, making the nation smart by supporting its smart and safer city projects.

Hexagon Geosystem Solutions are the preferred method, for accurate 3D positioning with Leica SmartTrack+ technology, of many states across India and forms the basis for Digital India. Hexagon Geosystem's optic technology has been further enhanced and offers multi-point measurement. This has added new dimensions to the Reality Capture or Scanning industry. The data captured by Leica sensors can be used by land-use planners to create detailed city models, by forensic experts, modeling and planning of critical infrastructure along with asset management solutions and more. Most of the industry buzz words like Digital World, Digital Cities, Digital Infrastructure, State of the Art Mapping are related to this 3D reality capture technology only. With the optic and positioning-based geodetic instruments like High-Precision Total Station TS60 and TM60, and GNSS - Indian geospatial industry has touched new heights. In India, these are widely used by the departments of dam monitoring, bridge monitoring, structural monitoring, and other mission mode projects of Digital India.

Our Metrology product and solutions are being used in the area of defence. We used our Q-Das software to equip data analysis in one of the factories under defence modernisation program. We are also focusing on the electronic industry, especially phone manufacturing domain, where we have products that can be used extensively in quality as well as production areas. Our focus is very strong in the Automotive industry to cater to the latest developments in this sector, including electric vehicles.

Today's smart cities need cutting-edge data analytics and visualization solutions that bridge the gap between the geospatial and the operational worlds. By combining our location-based data and business intelligence, these solutions fuse an infinite amount of data sources for urban planning, census, transportation, utilities, property appraisal, fire and rescue, citizen engagement, real estate, public safety, and more.

On a similar note, remote sensing technology is improving rapidly and is used extensively in Forestry and Agriculture sectors. Remote sensing technology, combined with newly developed algorithms and data sources such as sensor data, weather data, and population statistics, enables large-scale Smart Farming. The successful implementation of smart farming leads to better monitoring and evaluation of food security interventions.

We provide solutions for public safety and utilities/communications. Our solutions on Emergency Response Systems are already being used by UP Police 112 and Mumbai Fire Brigade. Our Records Management System provides a single source of truth for all crime, criminal, challan/tickets data management to law enforcement agencies worldwide. We have a comprehensive GIS based Asset Inventory Management systems for all utilities and telecom companies.

Hence, Hexagon is continuously developing technologies to achieve its vision of empowering an autonomous future. By pushing the boundaries in fields of reality capture, positioning, design and simulation, location intelligence, and autonomy, we are putting data to work for better results - from travel and transport to construction sites, infrastructure projects to making our cities smarter.
