A new chapter began for Shepherd International Academy on Friday as the institution's new campus was officially inaugurated at Arkula on the outskirts of the city.

The ceremony was attended by several distinguished guests, including Dr. Y Abdulla Kunhi, Chancellor of Yenepoya University; Dr. Abdul Qadeer, Chairman of Shaheen Group of Institutions; and Dr. Syed Habeeb, renowned author and life coach. Other notable guests included Mohammed Kunhi, Khateeb of Huda Masjid; Moulana Tayyab, Khateeb, Masjid ul Ehsaan; and Ar. Mohammed Nissar, Chairman of Shepherd's International Academy.

In his keynote address, Ar. Mohammed Nissar, Chairman of Shepherd's International Academy, took a trip down memory lane, recalling the humble beginnings of the institution. "We started with just 8 students in Masjid ul Ehsaan, and today, we stand proud, thanks to the trust and faith that our parents have placed in us," he said.

Nissar emphasized that the institution's focus would not be solely on academic excellence, but also on instilling values in its students. "We are a value-based institution, and our goal is to shape not just bright minds, but also compassionate and responsible individuals," he added.

Dr. Y Abdulla Kunhi, Chancellor of Yenepoya University, praised Ar. Mohammed Nissar for carrying forward the legacy of his late father, AK Ahmed. "I am confident that this new campus will fulfill the vision of AK Ahmed and take the institution to greater heights," he said.

Dr. Kunhi also had words of encouragement for the students. "This new campus is a wonderful opportunity for you to learn, grow and build your lives and careers. I urge you to make the most of it and strive for excellence in all that you do," he added.

Dr. Abdul Qadeer emphasized the importance of humble beginnings and good intentions in achieving success. He highlighted the similar origins of Shaheen and Shepherd's, which have grown to serve the community and country.

Dr. Qadeer stressed the need for strong institutions that prioritize the well-being of people and future generations. He encouraged a shift in focus from producing skilled employees and businessmen to cultivating individuals who contribute positively to humanity.

Furthermore, Dr. Qadeer advocated for responsible spending habits, particularly in the context of weddings. He suggested redirecting resources towards empowering future generations, which could lead to transformative change in the decades to come.

Mohammed Kunhi commended the efforts of establishing an educational institution, acknowledging the enormity of the task. He highlighted Islam's emphasis on education and the dissemination of knowledge, citing the Prophet Mohammed's prayers seeking beneficial knowledge and refuge from harmful knowledge.

Kunhi expressed concern over the decline of good values in society, urging people to draw inspiration from the lives of the Prophet and his companions, who exemplified good values and set a precedent for others to follow.

He stressed the importance of empathy, encouraging people to understand and relate to the problems of others. Kunhi emphasized that imparting such values and education to future generations is crucial, and institutions like Shepherd's International Academy play a vital role in shaping young minds.

Dr. Syed Habeeb, renowned author and life coach, also shared his thoughts at the event, resonating with the sentiments expressed by the other speakers. He underscored the transformative power of education, highlighting its potential to uplift entire generations within a community.

Dr. Habeeb emphasized the significance of institutions like Shepherd's International Academy, which play a vital role in empowering marginalized communities and bridging the educational divide.

The event commenced with the recitation of the holy Quran by Nafisa Asiya, a sixth-grade student of the institution. The recitation was followed by its translation.

Principal Lubna Banu extended a welcome to the distinguished guests, students, and faculty members. Faculty member Nilofer Sajid compered the event while Ms. Swati presented vote of thanks to conclude the event.

Secretary of Shepherd's International Academy, Rizwan Pandeshwar along with trustees SM Farooq, Naushad AK, Sajid AK and Nasim AK was present on the diaz during the event.

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:

  1. Upload any image or video frame
  2. AI analyzes visual clues such as structures, terrain, and environment
  3. The system identifies location with coordinates, confidence score, and reasoning
  4. Results are displayed on an interactive satellite map
  5. 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.
