Government Use Cases: Why Accuracy Matters

Let’s break down how the UGR 89 aligns with specific government use cases:

1. Aadhaar Seeding & e-KYC Location Validation

The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) requires location data to be captured during certain Aadhaar-related services. With the Radium UGR 89, GPS coordinates taken during Aadhaar seeding or eKYC can be accurately verified.

This helps in:

• Tracking the location of authentication points

• Geo-tagging Aadhaar enrollment and update centers

• Reducing chances of location spoofing
  
  

2. Land & Property Mapping (PM-KISAN, PMAY, SVAMITVA)

Programs like PM-KISAN, SVAMITVA, and PM Awas Yojana (PMAY) need GPS-enabled devices for land verification, boundary mapping, and asset tracking.

The UGR 89 supports these by:

• Providing real-time GPS coordinates with accuracy within 3 meters

• Allowing data export to GIS platforms for mapping and analysis

• Working well even in remote or low-network areas
  
  

3. Agricultural Field Surveys

State governments and agricultural departments require accurate field data for subsidy schemes, soil health cards, and fertilizer distribution.

The Radium UGR 89:

• Helps verify plot sizes accurately

• Supports location-tagged photos as evidence

• Works with Android or desktop data entry apps
  
  

4. Vehicle Tracking & Attendance

Used by local bodies and municipal corporations for waste management, school bus tracking, and staff attendance, the UGR 89 offers:

• Live GPS tracking with frequent updates

• Geo-fencing features when paired with compatible software

• Secure, tamper-proof data logging
