Bearys Institute of Technology observes World Earth Day with focus on sustainability
Mangaluru, April 28: Bearys Institute of Technology (BIT), Mangalore, marked World Earth Day 2025 with a special programme organised at the International Seminar Hall on Monday. The event, conducted by the Department of Civil Engineering and Basic Science, was held under the theme “Our Power, Our Planet,” highlighting the need to protect the environment and adopt sustainable lifestyles.
The keynote address was delivered by Dr. Bhagya B. Sharma, Deputy Director at the Centre for Environmental Studies, Yenepoya (Deemed to be University). Speaking on the topic “Powering the Future: The Earth Day Call to Action,” she encouraged students to explore clean energy solutions and take innovative steps to protect the planet.
Following her address, Dr. Purushothama C.T. from the Civil Engineering Department delivered a talk on “Sustainability: The Revolution Earth Needs,” where he discussed practical approaches to face environmental challenges and called for urgent action to adopt eco-friendly practices.
The programme began with a welcome by Dr. Altamashuddin Khan, Head of the Civil Engineering Department, who urged students to take active roles in conservation efforts. Principal Dr. S. I. Majur Basha shared a message emphasising the power of individual responsibility in preserving the environment through small, consistent efforts.
Over 200 students and faculty members took part in the programme, which sparked productive discussions and encouraged participants to contribute to a greener future.
The event concluded with a Vote of Thanks by Dr. Pooja K, Assistant Professor in the Civil Engineering Department. She thanked all the speakers, organisers, and attendees for their support and participation.
The programme was coordinated by Dr. Purushothama C.T. and Mr. Zaheer Ahmed from the Civil Engineering Department.

How Indian AI Is Booming with GEOX AI Leading the Next Wave of Geolocation Intelligence
TraceX Labs has announced the launch of GEOX AI, an advanced artificial intelligence platform capable of identifying the real-world location where a photograph or video was taken using only the visual content within the media.
Positioned as an enterprise-grade intelligence solution, GEOX AI leverages advanced computer vision and multi-agent AI to analyze pixel-level details such as architecture, road patterns, vegetation, signage, lighting, and environmental context. By interpreting these visual clues, the system can estimate—and in many cases precisely determine—the origin of an image or video.
AI-Powered Geolocation Intelligence
Marketed under the concept of “Locate Anywhere From Any Image,” GEOX AI is designed for intelligence operations where speed, accuracy, and reliability are critical. The platform currently supports:
- 400+ analyses available
- <10 seconds average response time
- Up to 99% accuracy on landmark-based identification
- Global coverage across diverse terrains and environments
Core Capabilities
GEOX AI integrates multiple intelligence features into a single platform:
- Precise Geolocation:
Identifies exact geographic coordinates using visual landmarks, architecture, vegetation, and cultural indicators. - Satellite Map View:
Results are plotted on live satellite imagery with 2D/3D viewing options and multiple map styles for deeper analysis. - AI Reasoning Analysis:
Provides a detailed explanation of how the system arrived at a conclusion, including confidence scoring. - Multi-Result Analysis:
Returns multiple possible locations ranked by confidence, enabling cross-verification. - Intelligence PDF Export:
Allows one-click generation of professional reports containing maps, coordinates, analysis, and structured findings. - Credit-Based Access:
Agencies are allocated credits, with each analysis consuming one credit. Additional credits can be requested directly.
Speed Meets Intelligence
GEOX AI is designed to balance rapid processing with analytical depth:
- Fast Mode: Delivers results within seconds for clear and high-context images
- Advanced Mode: Performs deeper multi-step analysis for complex or ambiguous visuals
- Built for real-time decision-making in high-pressure environments
How GEOX AI Works
The platform follows a simple and efficient workflow:
- Upload any image or video frame
- AI analyzes visual clues such as structures, terrain, and environment
- The system identifies location with coordinates, confidence score, and reasoning
- Results are displayed on an interactive satellite map
- Export a professional intelligence report in one click
A Breakthrough for Investigations
GEOX AI is expected to have wide-ranging applications across multiple domains:
- Tracking the origin of images from social media and open sources
- Supporting digital forensics and cyber investigations
- Assisting law enforcement and intelligence operations
- Helping journalists and OSINT analysts verify visual content
- Providing support in missing person cases and threat intelligence scenarios
Enterprise Access and Deployment
GEOX AI is available to verified law enforcement agencies, intelligence organizations, and authorized enterprises. Access is provided through a structured system where organizations can request credentials and define their operational use cases.
Interested users can request access via tracexlabs.com or contact contact@tracexlabs.com, with response times typically within 24–48 hours.
Privacy Debate Intensifies
The launch of GEOX AI has also sparked renewed discussion around digital privacy. By demonstrating how location data can be extracted purely from visible elements within images, the platform highlights the potential risks associated with sharing photos online without considering what those visuals may reveal.
Conclusion
With GEOX AI, TraceX Labs is entering the rapidly evolving geolocation intelligence space with a platform that combines speed, precision, and real-world usability. As artificial intelligence continues to advance, tools like GEOX AI are expected to play a critical role in shaping the future of investigations, security, and digital intelligence.
