Indian firm Genesys integrates department of posts' digital address system into 2D, 3D mapping system
This is an AI-generated image used for representation purposes. NEW DELHI: India's geospatial technology firm Genesys International Corporation has integrated DIGIPIN, the Department of Posts' digital address system, into its nationwide 2D and 3D mapping systems. The postal department has developed the DIGIPIN (Digital Postal Index Number) as an open-source, interoperable, geo-coded, grid-based digital address system in collaboration with IIT-Hyderabad and Isro and its centre National Remote Sensing Centre. Spanning more than 400 million building footprints, 8.3 million km of road networks, and 19,000+ PIN-code zones, the Genesys platform transforms static location data into a dynamic, interoperable address ecosystem. Developed in alignment with the Department of Posts' DHRUVA (Digital Hub for Reference & Unique Virtual Address) framework, the platform supports real-time address generation, lookup, and visual verification. The postal department had announced the launch of 'Know Your DIGIPIN' and 'Know Your PIN Code' on May 27 in alignment with the National Geospatial Policy 2022, which envisions the development of an advanced geospatial infrastructure to support digital governance and public service delivery. 'We are building a bridge between mapped locations and real-world service delivery. Our platform ensures that every verified address can support smarter cities, faster logistics, and more transparent governance,' Genesys chairman Sajid Malik said. With DIGIPIN now live on its national 2D maps and 3D Digital Twin pilots under way in key cities, Genesys is enabling the address intelligence layer of India's Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI), complementing Aadhaar for identity and UPI for payments. At the heart of this architecture is Genesys' AI-driven 3D digital twin platform, which acts as a unifying layer connecting stakeholders to real-world verified address data. Genesys works with ministries, smart cities, urban local bodies, and digital service providers to collaborate in scaling India's verified address infrastructure, bridging every location to opportunity and inclusion.

Genesys integrates DIGIPIN into national 2D and 3D maps
Geospatial solutions provider Genesys International has become the first company in India to integrate DIGIPIN — the country's standardised digital address layer — into its nationwide 2D and 3D mapping systems, under the government's DHRUVA framework. The move positions Genesys as a key player in the development of India's Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI), alongside existing frameworks like Aadhaar and UPI. The platform spans over 400 million building footprints, 8.3 million kilometres of road networks, and more than 19,000 PIN-code zones. It enables real-time address generation, lookup, and visual verification capabilities across both 2D maps and 3D Digital Twin models. DIGIPIN, developed in collaboration with the Department of Posts, allows for the creation of precise, interoperable addresses across the country. Genesys has extended its use to 3D city models, linking address data with urban infrastructure and emergency services, offering deeper spatial insights compared to conventional maps. The company said the mapping infrastructure is built for scale and will allow role-based access for governance entities, service providers, and end-users. It also supports consent-based data sharing and integration with legacy addresses. Genesys is currently working with several government departments, Smart Cities, and municipal bodies to support rollout and adoption.
