Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) government announced TPL Maps as the mapping partner to introduce street mapping and street vision across the province. For KP government, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was recently signed by TechValley Abbottabad and TPL Maps. Under the agreement, TPL Maps will be the maps digitisation partner for the KP government.
The partnership intends to cover various prospects from providing a range of mapping solutions across the cities of the province to creating employment opportunities for students which will play a pivotal role to curb the upsurge in the unemployment rate. The alliance also intends to enhance visual and mapping data for the education system, along with improved residential and commercial areas mapping.
The collaboration is a classic example of a private-public partnership. For a province like KP, with a population of 27.3Â million people and 26 districts, the partnership itself is a huge task to manage and digitising the entire province is a big win for TPL Maps. This also demonstrates the confidence of the TechValley on using local talents and technologies to map the entire province and it strongly aligns with its strategy to bridge the gap between industry and government.
