The solution that enabled us to win this award this year is
the Situational Awareness Framework we built for the World Food Program, part
of the United Nations. This Situational Awareness solutions helps UN officers
to track their crew, convoys and warehouses across the world and reports on the
status of each one of these resources. The officers can view such information
on a GIS interface on top of Microsoft Surface from a command and control room.
This enables the field crew to deliver the essentials to people who are
suffering due to natural calamities and in war. Through this, command and
control officers can help the field crew by warning them of unsafe zones and
directing them to safety. Our solution is currently deployed in Pakistan and
the UN is planning to roll this out to other parts of the world as well. We
have also built a prototype on Windows 8 that will be used by the field crew to
communicate back to the command center with pictures and videos from the field.
The Situational awareness solutions has also been selected
as a showcase for the most important Microsoft keynote by Kevin Turner, COO of
Microsoft at the Worldwide Partner Conference in Toronto in July this year. The
solution will get a prime mention in front of an audience of 15000 at the WPC
venue and several more thousands watching live across the world!
I am proud to be part of the team!!Thank you for all your
help and support!
