Long before drones, digital twins, and AI-powered mapping became central to India’s infrastructure ambitions, Amit Sharma and Rahul Jain were already betting on geospatial technology.
In 2008, years before India’s spacetech sector entered the mainstream, the duo founded Matrix Geo Solutions to focus on modern survey technologies such as photogrammetry, Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR, a specific remote sensing technology), geovideo, GIS, and remote sensing.
“Geospatial technology in India then was still at a very nascent stage,” says Founder and Director Amit Sharma.
“However, we strongly believed that this technology would eventually become a critical enabler for infrastructure development, governance, natural resource management, and evidence-based decision-making.”
Today, nearly two decades later, the New Delhi-based company has worked with organisations such as the Indian Railways, NHAI, NTPC, GAIL, Adani Group, Tata Projects, and L&T, and also runs the Drone Academy of India.
