Bhuvan is a Geoportal of Indian Space Research Organisation showcasing Indian Imaging Capabilities in Multi-sensor, Multi-platform and Multi-temporal domain. The portal gives you a gateway to explore and discover virtual earth in 3D space with specific emphasis on Indian region.It is a proud product of ISRO.
About Bhuvan :
Bhuvan gives you an easy way to experience, explore and visualize IRS images over Indian region .ISRO is well known amongst space faring nations for its world-leading reputation in developing new, indigenous and innovative service oriented applications using remote sensing technology. Over the past 2 decades, ISRO has mastered the art of developing these unique applications using various spectral, spatial and temporal resolutions offered by the versatile IRS satellites and these have been successfully institutionalized in many important areas of policy making, natural resources management, disaster support, and enhancing the quality of life across all sections of the society.

Basic features of Bhuvan : HERE
# Access, explore and visualise 2D and 3D image data along with rich thematic information on Soil, wasteland, water resources etc.
# Visualise multi-resolution, multi-sensor, multi-temporal image data
# Superpose administrative boundaries of choice on images as required
# Visualisation of AWS ( Automatic Weather Stations) data/information in a graphic view and use tabular weather data of user choice
# Fly to locations ( Flies from the current location directly to the selected location)
Heads-Up Display ( HUD) naviation controls ( Tilt slider, north indicator, opacity, compass ring, zoom slider)
# Navigation using the 3D view Pop-up menu (Fly-in, Fly out, jump in, jump around, view point)
# 3D Fly through (3D view to fly to locations, objects in the terrain, and navigate freely using the mouse or keyboard)
# Drawing 2D objects (Text labels, polylines, polygons, rectangles, 2D arrows, circles, ellipse)
# Drawing 3D Objects (placing of expressive 3D models, 3D polygons, boxes)
# Snapshot creation (copies the 3D view to a floating window and allows to save to a external file)
# Measurement tools (Horizontal distance, aerial distance, vertical distance, measure area)
# Shadow Analysis (it sets the sun position based on the given time creating shadows and effects the lighting on the terrain)
# There would be many more value added functions and facilities which will be added into the package from time to time.
# Particular interest of ISRO/DOS would be to provide such functionalities to common man so that he/she adopts participatory approach with scientists to solve simple problems easily and interactively.
