Two mobile apps, portal to aid in speedy processing of Census 2027 data
Enumerators for the 2027 Census will make data entries into apps on their smartphones for the first time, meaning that the data can be processed in real time, officials said on Thursday (June 5, 2025). This could mean the faster publication of datasets, rather than having them spread out over the decade following a population count, as has been seen in the case of past Censuses. Speeding up the process will allow those who make policies and implement schemes to draw from more accurate and timely data, a government report said. The 2027 Census, being conducted after a 16-year gap, is likely to use the templates of two mobile applications and a portal called the Census Management and Monitoring System (CMMS), which were initially developed for the planned 2021 Census. Since comprehensive caste information will also be collected for the first time in independent India, the apps will be tweaked and updated to include this data. According to the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) 2023-24 annual report, the CMMS portal will be used to monitor the appointment of Census functionaries, including enumerators and supervisors; the training schedule of Census officials; the progress of field-work by each enumerator on a real time basis; and the 'auto-generation of some Census Records/Abstracts'. Mobile apps to be used The mobile applications — Census 2021-Household and PE-Census 2021 (Population Enumeration) — developed by the National Data Centre of the Registrar General of India are both available on the Google Play Store and the Apple platform, but can only be accessed by government enumerators. The Census 2021-Household on Google Play, which was last updated on October 7, 2024, had more than 50,000 downloads and an average rating of 3.5. Many users complained that they were unable to login despite multiple attempts and the edit option was not available, which led to the deletion of all data entries. According to 'The Treatise on Indian Censuses Since 1981', a report released by Union Home Minister Amit Shah in May 2023, 'it is estimated that the data would be collected from 33 crore households and likely to cover 136 crore people.' Around 30 lakh enumerators will fan out to 24 lakh enumeration blocks, each comprising around 800 people. Digitising data The report said that till the 2011 Census, the activities were managed and monitored through manual processes, which resulted in 'late output of Census results due to obvious reasons.' 'After gathering a lot of experience from previous Censuses and considering the huge size, complexities, and involvement of different functionaries in distant geographical locations, the need for a suitable online Management Information System was felt. This led to the development of the CMMS. Experience of past census exhibits that lot of time and resources were being consumed in digitisation of data collected from the field resulting in delayed processing and dissemination of results by almost a decade,' the report said. The MHA report said that an enumerator would collect and submit data directly through mobile app, using her or his smartphone. The provision of paper schedules is also being kept, in case of connectivity issues, it said. Speedier process The idea behind a digital Census is 'to make quality and reliable official data available at the earliest for evidence-based policy making, robust decision support system for inclusive planning, smooth implementation of government welfare schemes, ensuring and enabling the social benefits to reach the focused and targeted group of beneficiaries,' it added. The Census will be conducted in two phases by February 28, 2027 and the data will have a reference date of 12 a.m. on March 1, 2027. However, the government has not yet notified the date of commencement of the exercise. The notification of the Centre's intention to conduct the census, and the dates of the two phases will be 'published in the official gazette tentatively on June 16 as per provision of section 3 of the Census Act 1948.'

Fluke Reliability Launches Shaft Alignment Solution that Powers Precision Measurement and Maximizes Uptime
EVERETT, Washington, May 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fluke Reliability today announced a new Shaft Alignment solution, featuring rugged professional tablets compatible with its full range of alignment kits, including Pruftechnik's single-laser alignment tools. Misalignments are an unseen force, driving increased utility costs and are the leading cause of 50% of unplanned downtime in rotating machines. A single 75 KW pump with an aligned offset of just 0.75mm increases utility costs by €1,624/$1,758 annually while also accelerating wear on bearings, seals, and couplings. With up to 90% of industrial equipment misaligned, precision alignment programs offer companies the potential to save thousands of euros or dollars in utility costs alone over a machine's lifetime. In response to these challenges, Fluke introduced Shaft Alignment solutions along with flexible, modular alignment packages that include any combination of: This scalable, modular system allows organizations to start their alignment programs with only the components and the shaft application level they need, reducing upfront costs. As their program grows, they can easily add new capabilities without replacing existing equipment. Maintenance professionals are being asked to do more with leaner teams, and Pruftechnik Shaft Alignment tools have been designed with this in mind. They eliminate the need for multiple tablets while enabling technicians to perform reliable precision alignments in industrial applications. The rugged tablet is built to endure even the toughest industrial environments, with an environmental protection rating of IP65, it is dustproof, water jet resistant, and designed to withstand drops of up to 1.2 meters. The Shaft Alignment tablet is available in both locked and unlocked versions. The locked version performs alignment work only, allowing for focused work on a secure, closed platform. The unlocked version allows users to install additional applications such as thermal imaging, geometrical alignment or computerized maintenance management system (CMMS for example from eMaint) applications to further support reliability. Both versions integrate seamlessly with Pruftechnik's alignment heads to enable precision alignment in industrial applications. Aaron Merkin, Chief Technology Officer, Fluke Reliability, commented: 'At Fluke Reliability, our strength lies in solving complex industrial challenges through precision alignment technology. Since acquiring Pruftechnik in 2019, we've combined decades of engineering expertise with our innovation roadmap to deliver scalable solutions that drive measurable results.'
