Hello, today we are going to look at using a college library catalog. So the first thing I need to do is find my college libraries catalog. So I'm using the Bing search engine and I'm going to enter Wenatchee Valley College Library. So here is the WBC Library homepage for my local community college. There are all sorts of things here. I can get help finding articles or books. I can get help finding e-journals. I can access all sorts of databases full of different kinds of articles and information. Or I can look at our book catalog. Now today I just want to look at the WBC catalog. I'm going to make the screen a little bigger. So I'm going to go over here and click on that. I'm going to do a basic search here for a keyword. And perhaps today I'm looking at an issue like immigration. So I get 190 results. My keyword is highlighted. And I can start to see books that are available with a green check mark or not available with the red X. Now perhaps I'm going to look at this book, United States Immigration, a reference handbook. If I click on the title I can see a little bit more information such as how many pages it is, what kind of subjects are discussed in that book. So far I'm not seeing anything that jumps out. So I'm going to keep looking. I'm just scanning the titles to find things that maybe will work for a research paper or something I would be interested in reading. Here's a book about diversity in America. Part one is about thinking about diversity and part two is about managing diversity. This one looks interesting to me. So from here I could look at where the book is located. Here's the call number and this is on the main floor of the library. So if I were in the library doing this search I would just go over and grab the book. I could write this information down and take it with me to the library or I could request the item by entering my ID number and my last name. And this would have the library put it on hold for me. So the next time I went in it would be easy to find the book. Let's go back and do another kind of search. Here I can do an advanced search. And I could do the same topic, immigration, but maybe I just want current material from the last five years. So here we can see 22 results found. The first one being American immigration, a very short introduction. So again, I can click on the title to see more information about the book. And from here I can see where it is or I can make a request for the book. And that is a short introduction to how to use a college library catalog. Please feel free to ask your librarian for help. Thank you.


Good afternoon. Welcome. There is a law of constant hair. So you are removing hair and I am growing hair actually. Yeah, that's right. So like law of conservation of energy. Or mass. Mass. Okay. Chemical engineering with all conservations are involved actually. Yes. So go ahead. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. So hello everyone. Good afternoon to one and all. So it is an honor to see all the dignitaries who have gathered here today. I, Yash Bora on behalf of the 4C team, welcome you all to the result declaration ceremony of the IITB ISRO AICT mapathon. So before we proceed, let me just give a brief about 4C. 4C stands for free slash labor and open source software for education project. It promotes the use of flaws tools to improve the quality of education in our country. We aim to reduce dependency on proprietary software in educational institutions. The 4C project is a part of the national mission on education through information and communication technology. Ministry of Education, government of India. So let me now begin the event by welcoming professor. He is a faculty in the department of chemical engineering, IIT Bombay and the principal investigator of the project 4C. So, Karnan sir, over to you. Thank you. Yes. Welcome all the dignitaries. Welcome professor. Welcome professor. We have we have Mr. Yogesh Andley, who is a co-founder of nucleus and polaris software and also director of global wheels global. We have Jay Bonu from ISRO. We have actually I forgot an important person we have today. Riyaz Deen, Sam Suddin is a student from Sastra University. And then we have Mr. Raju Anathraman, who is from is a CEO of TBI at Sastra University. We have professor Pendan Chinaswamy. He is going to explain the processes that we follow here and so on. I welcome all of you and of course all the participants. There are 10,000 people who registered and we got 688 completed submissions. Professor Pendan will talk about it later. So I welcome all of them. The 4C project was briefly introduced by Yesh. We promote Psylab, Python, Openform, DWCIM, OpenModelica, Power, ESIM, and then many open source graphical software. And then of course QGIS. We mandated the use of QGIS in this mapathon because we wanted to give a level playing field for all the 10,000 people. We wanted to use ISRO data because ISRO is our data. And also they would have taken care of things like defense implications and so on and so forth. So we don't have to worry about that. And of course AACTE because two reasons. One is AACTE is a good friend. Also, we wanted to reach out to as many students as possible. In fact, it goes without saying that without AACTE's help, we could not have reached out to 10,000 people. And then we also got this event endorsed by the Prime Minister's office and which further helped. We said that you take any topic and then do a map of it. To MOE, Ministry of Education, which was formerly known as MSRD. We got letters written to all the district collectors telling them about this activity. And then asked them to encourage students in nearby colleges, schools and so on to participate. Get the map of national map from ISRO and then superimpose local information on that and so produce some useful information. I don't want to get, I don't want to say too much about it because Professor Pendan is going to talk about it anyway. So with this, I think I'm going to hand over the mic back to Nish. I want to emphasize that this is a joint activity of ISRO, AACTE and IIT Bombay. We are really happy that even though it was a pandemic, difficult times, we could really do something outstanding. And I want to thank all the participants for participating in this, for working in this whole heartedly and producing some outstanding maps. So over to you. Yes. Thank you. Thank you so much, sir. So I would like to thank the elite panel of jury members from ISRO and IIT Bombay who have supported us through this mapathon and evaluated the submissions and identified the champions. As Professor Kannan mentioned, there were a lot of submissions. So thank you. Thank you all the jury members. I would now like to invite Ms. Vijaya Bhanu, Deputy Director Information Systems ISRO Headquarters. Ma'am, over to you. Respected Chairman, AICTE, Professor Anil Sahasrabudde, Secretary, Ministry of Panchayatrach. And Vice Chancellor, Shastra University, Professor Dr. S. Vaidya Subramaniam sir, co-founder of Polaris and Nuclear Software, Mr. Yogi sir, Professor Kannan sir, IIT Bombay, my friend and Professor Pendan, IIT Bombay. And my dear all participants, namaste. IIT Bombay, AICTE, ISRO mapathon is a very unique experience. We thank Chairman AICTE, Professor Kannan and Professor Pendan for this amazing idea and enabling us to be part of this journey. I thank ISRO's duo portal team, directors and our management for all their encouragement, efforts and opportunities. So we are very fortunate to live in this amazing era where India owns a rich constellation of Earth observation, communication, navigation and meteorological satellite. Well, this is at the data acquisition end. At processing friend, we have advanced technologies driven by machine learning techniques, big geospatial data analytics, blockchain and others. Let us look at the computation end. We are blessed with GPGPUs, cloud computing and onboard data processing. On dissemination side, we have OGC standards enabling interoperability, data cubes, in-duty visualization techniques, very powerful open source and commercial off the shelf libraries and frameworks. Today, geospatial solutions are more and more being adopted in the mainstream processes of every domain. When we just talk about so much of opportunities, what else is needed? Of course, the data. Many organizations have supported open data initiatives and shared the Earth observation data sets through GeoPortal. Born from NRC, Vedas and most have from SAC. Air quality monitoring portal from IARS. Northeastern data repository from NSAC provide not only open data to us, but also the web services, web map services, risk services, APIs to consume and build solutions on top of it. Honorable Prime Minister announced at Manirbar Bharat and it is very encouraging to see the beautifully designed road map in front of us. We have a lot of opportunities to come together and realize India's self-reliance dream in this sector. To list a few, building new geospatial solutions, data collection and data generation using all these apps, identifying and defining the problem statement, developing new algorithms, building and training machine learning models, improving the APIs, conducting quiz and smarter turns, publishing case studies, increasing awareness and enhancing utilization or various opportunities. In case of increasing awareness, we would like to thank Chairman AICTE and IIT Bombay team for all those arrangements to reach out to the students for May 2020 Webinar and Istro GeoPortals. Sir, we have got an excellent list of outcomes today and spin-offs from that event. So friends, let us take a pledge today to work together in geospatial domains in all possible ways towards realizing Atmanirbar Bharat. Thank you. Thank you so much, ma'am. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. So moving ahead, now I would like to invite Professor Penan Chinnasamy, who is a professor at the Center for Technology Alternatives for Rural Areas, Sitara at IIT Bombay. And he's also a co-PI of QGIS at Project FOSI. So, sir, over to you. Please address the participants. Can you see my screen? Yes, sir. It is visible. I respect dignitaries and distinguished panelists. It is my pleasure to thank all of you for joining us in this very, very important junction. We are finally coming to a close of a long event, a very fruitful event. So I would like to give the background why and how this happened and how it has materialized recently. So the background is this is kind of an image of how many satellites are going to be in the future, very near future. And it's a diagram which is out of scope or, you know, overboard because there are a lot of satellites that are being launched every single week. Last week India launched a lot and all these are collecting data. So with all these satellites going around the globe, we have multiple satellite data that we could use. And I think, as Isra was saying, there are a lot of portals and done by people in higher education system or high technical institutes. So what does this mapathon do? The mapathon actually acted like a bridge between the satellite data and softwares to create the capacity of individual localized maps. And as Professor Kannan correctly pointed out, we identified QGIS, which is an open source free software. And it also consumes less power and memory compared to the commercial ones. And this has created a lovely field for everyone to use the data for his own local problems and understand and help in managing these issues. So right now I just go through the first steps we did. We asked the participants to register. We gave them a list of examples of 10 problem statements and we also gave them a very unique problem that you could pick up by yourself. So it is like bring your own problem kind of a type. And then we also gave them resources to learn the software. Maybe some people did not have access to the software. So we gave them the resources, built the capacity and also provided the data so that they can address the problem. For us, the problem is very important to be addressed and so created a bridge between the data and the software to get at the problems. So what did we do? Spoken tutorial is a very robust system. It has multiple open source softwares and in that we do have QGIS where we train them in multiple languages. So we also bridge the gap between languages and discipline. So here it is the Spoken tutorial team. I'd like to thank all of them for bringing all the QGIS tutorials on board and ready for them during the mapathon in multiple languages. And then we brought the thematic maps from ISRO and new data from ISRO that the participants can use. So we created tutorials for them to self-learn. And right now in this pandemic, this has been a very, very successful method of self-learning through open source tutorials. ISRO data and links and also the boundary shapefiles of India district, state and also the national boundaries. And we also give them resource pages where you can go and get more data, like for example, you need health data because they had problems. So this is the creative learning environment. What has produced? We are very happy to say we think this is one of the largest in the world mapathon events because it has around 9,000 participants and it has also crossed against the entire states and union territories of India. So all the states and union territories were participated and this is the map that shows how many teams were participating. And in the team comprised of one to four students or participants and that is where you get 9,000. It covered the entire country. We are very happy to also see places where data is very scarce, observation data, but they could use remote sensing data for those regions. And that is one of the cashmere regions, the data is very less, but they can use remote sensing data. Ethnographic participation. Again, we are very happy to say that it reached out across all sectors. Participation in terms of gender, we had a very good approximately 60-40 percentage male-female participation. We had different age groups. There are students from schools, high schools, right up to colleges and universities, etc., etc. Even DRDO was represented. So we have across the spectrum. Even family teams, a father, mother and a child participating, it was called a family team and they gave the details of it. So right now we have broken the barriers. The problem statement is the more important one and how they access it and what kind of colleges, etc. We had common schools. The one you see is the primary government school up to the IITs top in the country. So all of them on the same platform, same problems and everyone was assessed similarly. So participation across education institutions was very, very good. And the other thing is participation was across the multiple disciplines. All themes were presented, starting from health, environment, police control, floods management, etc., etc. So across the themes and disciplines was noticed. Levels as in, is it a basic level of understanding of roads to a condition mapping network, etc. So private, public and government agencies participated. So this was also good to see that there was also participation across the spectrum and also within the spectrum. So some people had partners in the government and etc. So we made a way to create these kind of maps using these kind of software. Why would we need this? And this is the recent news just three days ago. Everyone would have seen this news. A hundred FEMTO satellites was launched from Madurai, like in coincidence with the sub-dominant dream of space missions. And all these satellites are going to bring data. A satellite is a product that goes up into the space and has to take something back as data or information, etc. So now there are so many, so many data sources and so much data. So let's give it the information and that is where GIS and this mapathon plays a big role. So we needed trained capacity using these data and we have done this across this thing. So I'd like to stop for my first introduction part of the mapathon. I will come back with the research section in my next presentation. Thank you. Thank you so much, sir. So now we move ahead for the result declaration of the mapathon. So may I please invite Professor Anil Sirasrabudde, AICT chairman to please announce the results. Anil sir, can you please share your screen and do the needful, sir? There is the screen share here at the bottom. Yes, there is an option present now. Present now. Bottom right. Present now. There are some places it says screen sharing, so it is present now here. Is the presentation started? You have to select and click. Did you do that? No, no, has the screen share visible? Not yet, sir. No, you have to select. After present now, there might be something that you have to select. Share now. I have done it. You have done it. Okay. It is coming. It is going around. So now it is visible, right? Now I change the screen. Yes, sir. Now our hearty congratulations to all the champions is visible, right? Yes, sir. Click the champions. Press the champions. So here is the result. Champions are here now to come. Yes. I think someone can read or I can read. No, the pendant will talk about it. Okay, he is going to talk later, right? Yes, sir. There are 25 teams. Yeah. There are 25 winners, right? 25 champions. Oh, sorry, champions, not teams. Another category called winners is there. So that will come later. Professor Pendan will actually talk about. We thought we will not. We will give the link for these to all the participants. Okay. Yes, you can probably put the link of these so people can access and go. Yes, definitely. Definitely. I will do that, sir. So what is next? Professor Pendan will explain. Yes, sir. Yes. Pendan, sir, over to you now. Please, please explain the work done by our champions and all other participants. Thank you, Anil, sir. Thank you. Thank you, sir. Thank you. Professor Anil, I need to, I think I'll have to share the screen. So. Yeah, I have to stop sharing now. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. Is my screen visible, Yash? Yeah, it's coming. Thank you. Yes, sir. Okay. So again, congratulations to all the winners. We will go through how these selections was done. The competition was very tough. As I said, there was a lot of teams and the 9,000 participation. What we did is we divided the part, the submissions into champions. The top 25 became the champions. The next top 175 became the winners of the competition. And there were 488 notable participants. So unfortunately, some of the participants did not use the open source and all the ISRO data. So we could not, because it is a competition and the rules were spent out, we could not have them in the champions or winners or participants list. So you will get a notice about it. But to clarify, champions are the top, out of all the submissions that top 25 became the champions. And then the notable ones with right next to the champions were the winners, 175. All the teams will be populated on the website. So please be tuned. You will see it on the results webpage soon in a day or two. So what did the final submissions come? Why and how did we make this? There was a jury formed with the IIT Bombay and Uttara lab, especially Meeta, Meethu, Sivanand, Pranath. So we went across each and every presentation at least three, four times, looked at the data set that was used. And most importantly, India-specific data. And did they use QGIS? So with all this was the first cleaning section of the submissions. Then we went into what were the submissions? Were it a creative, holistic approach? Did they address the cost of the issues? And proactive and reactive management? I'd be very happy to say that the thinking of the students is very appreciated. And the participants thought outside the box of how to use ISRO data, which I've never seen across, you know, in my academy career, which is very, very interesting. Let's go to some of the notable champions. This one was from Mr. Mohammed Faizan. He mapped the Glacial Lake. Glacial Lake in 2008, how big it is in 2013 and 2018. You could see that the size of the lake is increasing. And these are not, you cannot monitor this physically because it is very, very inaccessible. So satellite image is the only way you could actually monitor the growth of these lakes. And how important, timely, just now. In couple of days ago, we had a big, sad event, Glacial Lake in UP. And all these methods that could be used is using satellite data. So you could see how a student thought about Suramanan University and mapped and monitored the lake growth in a couple of years, in actually five years. And this could be a very important information for the local managers to prevent floods and loss of life. So congrats again to Mohammed. It is a very timely and you became a champion. The next one was a very notable one was to see how across West Bengal, different COVID situations ranked. Not all districts should get the equal amount of COVID attention because there is a lot of differences and hierarchy. And that was beautifully mapped by this presentation. She also mapped the COVID hospitals across the sector. So now we know where the hotspots are and how much hospital beds are so that we can easily take the questions to them. So this maps did help in the COVID analysis. See that now we are changing from floods to health, et cetera. Then another team SWAT from my team address. And the big issue in Delhi regarding air quality and this team beautifully mapped using his data and ground observed data. So as Professor Kanan said, you can also superimpose your observation data. So they are both they get both the extra data and superimpose the data to look at how the pollution moved. And you could clearly see that Delhi is being polluted. Air pollution is decreasing because of this. And this is the movement from 2018, 2019, how the arrow marks, it moves. So now policy makers can look at these and manage the health of a city better. The other thing which happened across India during the COVID, which was very sad was the first attack and the Steena map and you could see how the locus jumps per month from July to August. And then in Rajasthan in September, it moves. So now if you go how the locus moves by using this data and mapping it on QGIS, you could actually protect farmers livelihood and life. So very, very interesting. Another was what quality groundwater quality for the category based in by Dr. Hemma from engineering college and you could see how the polluted moves. Actually, if you have all the data and superimpose it on a map, this study looked at how the maps are the water quality parameters are moving. And now we know where to put some remedy measures to protect people's health. The next one was very, very innovative. India is moving towards battery powered vehicles and stuff. And how did you put the power station for recharging your vehicles? And this team very, very creatively at the different constraints and maybe stations where you could go and people your battery charge. So, and there was a lot of steps involved. So you can look at what are the steps involved on your right panel and what data they used and how they did it, which is through data. So this is where a champion stood out. So again, to Pranav, Pandya and team, this was very, very important. And it was one of the standing out from the normal, you know, water or quality issues. So it was very nice to see some outside the box. Then another one was from Pune. You see how floods happen. And actually this team made 10 maps, not only one map map for three meters, five meters, seven meters and 10 meters. So across this map, when you move ahead with floods, where is the first hit? Where is the first vulnerable population? This showed it. So if we can share this with the street collectors and the evacuation specialists, they can easily evacuate people before the flood comes. It is a reactive measure, but a proactive measure. So this is what we're going to do in the next step, publish all these maps online so that any resource person can use it and protect the city. So it's a very, very important, the stuff they did. Just want to have good champions working, submission work to map the crimes against women in India in 2019. This was from the government data set. And the person, Miss Monti took it from the government data set and plotted these maps. You could see a trend where these issues are happening. And the government is doing a lot of steps to control these actions against women. And this map can actually show where to put more police people or more resource people to control. And also it has a trend. So the trend was good and it was good to see the entire India map very explicitly done at district levels. So congrats to the team for doing it very well. So you could, all the participants were able to see how different datasets were used, not only ISRO data, but also the observation data from government. And I'd like to also mention that all these studies I showed right now use government data. Like it could be the comments, WBs, groundwater data, or your CWCs, water flood data, et cetera, et cetera. And grant data from NCB. So they use the data along with the, with the ISRO database and QGIS software to make these beautiful maps that can be helping for policy regulations, management, and resource person. I'd like to again thank and come back, extend my congratulations to all the participants. And we look forward for your contributions again and again. And also for all the teams that helped in running this map again. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much, sir. Thank you so much. So moving ahead, now I would like to request Professor Kannan to introduce our next guest, Mr. Ria Suddin is. So it's a great pleasure to introduce somebody who is possibly not even 20 year old to the, all the participants. He's probably as old as you are, perhaps younger, maybe a few years older. Ria Suddin is a student at Sastra University. He designed, he got selected, he got the price for designing Tempo satellites, missions at V1 and V2. And what is interesting is these satellites are going to be launched by NASA. I won't take too much time. I will ask Ria Suddin because the satellite that he is going to launch, that is going to be, I mean his satellite will be launched by NASA, would collect data and can be used for a lot of other activities. It is, we are actually talking about Atman-Ribber here, but we are self-land and we can do a lot of nice things. So we are really delighted to have Ria Suddin. Please go ahead. Thank you, sir. Good evening to one and all present here. Good evening to all the dignitaries and all the participants. And also, I would like to congratulate all the winners and all the participants. So myself, Ria Suddin from Sastra University and I am doing my second year of VTech in mechatronics. And yeah, I have designed the two Tempo satellites. That is the missions at V1 and V2. So these both are the satellites, the technology experimental satellites and these are going to be, these are going to be get launched from NASA's Volaps flight facility and the Langley Research Center. Probably in June 2021. The launch should have been in 2020 and due to this pandemic and all the thing, everything got collapsed and the launch got postponed to 2021. So these satellites, so I'd like to tell you a few things about my satellite. So both the satellites are almost around 33 grams in weight and it measures around 37 mm in size and it has almost around 11 sensors inside on both and it'll be able to get 17 parameters. It'll be able to record 17 parameters on both and we'll get a lot of data. So one of the satellite has to be launched from within the sounding rocket from NASA's Volaps flight facility in June 2021 and it'll just go up to 120 kilometers and one more thing is that both the satellites are suborbital satellites and it'll be returning to us within 24 hours of time. They'll be retrieving it. And the observations had B2. So that satellite has to be launched with the zero pressure research balloon from Langley Research Center in late August or September. So we are like looking forward for the launch and both the satellites are 3D printed by using FDM processing and 3D printing. We have just obligated the whole satellite structure and the material used for 3D printing is the polyethyrimite. So that's a thermoplastic resin. So the thermoplastic resin that I told you, the Altam, to be specific, it's an Altam material and it has a lot of the tensile strength and it has all good thermal properties that could withstand all the space atmosphere. So that's a material that could suit for all the space-related applications and uses. So from this research, we could explore more things and using that sort of highly advanced materials for space applications. And this sort of 3D printing the parts, maybe, the parts or anything that is related to space will benefit ourselves in replacing the convection fiber and plastics that we regularly use in space applications. So not only the convection fiber and plastics, even some sort of metal parts that we use inside the spacecrafts or anything that is related to space will get highly benefited by replacing the material with this sort of highly efficient and highly stable polyethyrimite that is the thermoplastic resin. So that's the complete stuff behind this research and I've been doing this since my grade 11 and finally after two years of work we just got selected in the Cubes in Space competition to say a word about the competition. It's a competition. Now Cubes in Space is a competition for all the school students which expects the students to submit proposals on space research or space-based experiments which they'll be able to launch into space and we can just continue the research even after the launch. So this is a sort of competition for school students and this competition met around thousands and thousands of participants from all the global countries and we have come to an end and I'm one of the global finalists and I'm looking forward for the satellites to be flown in the sounding rocket and the balloon and future. And my ongoing projects like I and my team are working on Orbital Satellite that we are working on it and probably we'll be letting all the information of that satellite soon and I'm planning for my startup with Sastra University's TBI and I'm working on a lot of projects not only space, I'm just involved in agriculture, robotics, electronics and a lot of fields and I just want technology to be accessible by everyone all the students. One of the drawbacks in our country is not every student is getting accessible to all the new technology or all the development stuff so we want everything to be accessible by all the students. Yeah, thank you. Thanks for this opportunity. Thank you, thank you. Thank you Riyal Singh so much for motivating everyone and especially the youth of our nation to think big. So thank you, thank you so much. May I now again request Professor Kannan to introduce our next guest, sir. Professor Vaidya is the next speaker he is the Vice Chancellor of Sastra University. Sastra University is an amazing place and in fact sometimes they even take tough decisions. This year they took the tough decision that they will not do online invigilation that people should come to TCS centers and he got a lot of bringbacks because of that but he stood firm. By the way we are some other people who advised him to do that and one of the members of his academic council I'm also happy that my daughter studied at Sastra University so I have personal knowledge about this place so it's a great pleasure to have Professor Vaidya with us and I would want Professor Vaidya to say a few words. Thank you. Thank you very much Professor Kannan for those nice words. Very good evening to this distinguished panel that has a good friend Professor Anil Sastra but they also has the Chief Guest. I'm extremely happy to just share the next five minutes with such a very distinguished and diverse gathering. Yes it's nice to be a part of an initiative of this type and as Professor Kannan had just mentioned we are just fresh out of a very massive exercise and I must say that we also use the data from the Indian Postal Services and map to various test centers that are available in actually the place a mechanism that can give students a test center which is less than 10 kilometers from the place of state so here again we use all the government data as well as certain validated data along with the TCS and we ran an algorithm that ensured that students are not troubled to travel to long places to take this hybrid examination during this pandemic because we felt that this online assessment was a little porous and we wanted to put in place a foolproof mechanism and I must say that around 98% of the students got their test centers within 30 kilometers actually around 87% of the students got their test centers under 20 kilometers using the algorithm that we actually mapped with data that was available from the Indian Postal Services and other validated data. Now why did I say this as a backdrop? It's because of good advice from people like Professor Kannan Maudhulia who are part of our academic council and the other benefit is since he is a part of our academic council we also have the firsthand information about the FOSA initiative and Shastra is also an active participant we have FOSA champions, Professor Narain is doing tremendous job so we are definitely excited about such open source collaborative instrumentalities that brings together various knowledge elements to provide solutions the reason that it is kind of aligned to now our Atma Nirvarta is also making it very compelling for us to explore more into certain unchartered territories now because we have always seen how India has always been seen as a country where there is a lot of consumerism and every country has its own problem but you cannot say it's a problematic country so we also have a lot of problems it's a problem of plenty so we ask the question ourselves how can we now contribute and the most recent example is how we develop our own vaccines and we've started contributing them to the world now that is the biggest learning experience for all of us to have a sense of national responsibility now an initiative of this type, the mapathon is built on that massive sense and the undercurrent that drives this is the kind of, I call this as an open source democracy where we have information that is available for everybody now it is for individuals and institutions to get together to explore this goldmine of information and to do that we need accelerators like AACTE like ISRO, IID Bombay now these are all the lead accelerators who brought together all these players into this mapathon and moving forward I see very clearly that these institutions, maybe AACTE now they've all put in place a policy clarity that is now giving some pathway for academic flexibility also because many institutions have taken this not only as a competition but they are using these initiatives to also integrate them with their academics to such extent that AACTE has also given some room for such creativity with a great deal of academic flexibility it is now on the responsibility of institutions and individuals like us to jump into action so we have to now move into the activity mode and glad you know students like Priyasudeen have already actually thought about this he started this during his school days and then even when he made his transition into the university that did not deter him from pursuing his passion and it should not be just you know an activity where he won the competition so I spoke with him and we wanted this to again move forward that's why you know we also gave him financial support with seed capital to set up an incubation facility that could gradually evolve into a startup come up with more satellites maybe he will be a satellite entrepreneur himself moving forward so that's the vision with which we want students like Priyasudeen to move forward and to support this initiative there is enough academic flexibility that is available thanks to some policy leadership and institutional leadership that's coming from IIT Bombay and many such stakeholders and that Shastras also a part of this stakeholder community is something that we are very proud about and we will be fully committed to an initiative of this type that brings together the best of all minds to put forth all the information and knowledge that we have to make Atmanilbatha a workable reality thank you very much thank you so much sir so now we move ahead and I would now like to invite Prof. Anil Sarasrabudde, AICT chairman to address the participants Anil sir over to you thank you yes we have Dr. Kannan and Prof. Penan both of them so it's very funny combination one is certainly having also Chinna Swami and Dr. Kannan which is supposed to be Krishna a playful man and he creates lots of possibilities for young students to play with various open source software and create some very creative and innovative things for our domain and we have Vijay Manu from ISRO and the support from ISRO was very vital because unless ISRO maps are available we couldn't have done anything so the support of ISRO on one side IIT Bombay on the other side and a very small contribution from AICT in terms of sending emails, nothing else that is how we could make this happen and we have Vaidya, a young dynamic vice chancellor very rarely we have a vice chancellor who is fully supportive for students and a young student Riyasuddin Chamsuddin who I was seeing, listening to him that he is the new Abdul Kalam who is emerging from this the portals of this particular university very, very exciting time and all that in the Macathon what we have done is in terms of asking students to use open source software that is QGIS, use the ISRO satellite map which are available, data which is already available add on to that many other things which they find either in terms of information through the letters written by minister of education to the district administration they have all started supporting otherwise many times district administrators they are busy with their own work and normally don't even look at what students are wanting to do but here when the letter goes from ministry naturally they will give attention and the students were getting some data of the other here and there and then there are 700 or 735 also districts today in the country we want to have data of all these districts in variety of forms they were challenging problem statements students have come out with their own idea of what more data can be added some of that is through the maps itself like how the glacier is changing how the lake size is changing all of that is available from the maps themselves but there are additional information whether it is in terms of different types of facilitation which is available in a town or a city or a district in terms of hospitals, in terms of schools colleges, you have pharmacies you have data of rainfall you have data of minerals I think some of these data are not available through the map but can be generated from obtained from district administration due to a lot of statistics departments which collect this data you compile that and put it on that and also your own observation you are from that place probably you are moving around you see a lot of things that are changing over the years can we convert that into a map and then provide that information in terms of sports, in terms of culture in terms of the innovativeness has no boundaries so you can think about anything which comes to your mind and start implementing it and that is what this particular entire exercise one of the again another professor from IIT who is very passionate Dr. Kannan who keeps asking me on some Saturday morning Sunday morning he says do you have one minute time he asks me I say yes one minute we can speak and he goes on for one hour and we also it is not only one-way traffic I also give another half an hour added to that and out of that emerges a new idea new mapathon, new hackathon and we have been able to do that whether it is in terms of Sylab, whether it is in terms of Agliab we had also for twice and ideas of converting lot of movies out of that so creativity is out of its there is no boundary as I said and right now Ticathon is already ongoing just a week back we had a very interesting ASEAN India hackathon where new economy problems were concerned including security of the seas, oceans the kind of traffic congestion that happens in the ports and then officially what type of area we have to cover for getting good deal all right of problems for developing economy to develop security students are a germinating ground for brilliant ideas we people with grey hair hardly get any ideas the ideas all come from young people they have to be taken forward and the leadership wherever it is whoever leaders are listening wins by chancellors, principals, HODs is that give a small listening to your young students they come with some great idea don't discourage them maybe absolutely not possible to implement still give them a chance say that you try for next one year and then if you don't then go back to your normal studies so I think that kind of encouragement is what is important today and if you do that innovation has as I said no boundaries we are already jumped the queue from 81st position to 40th position in international global innovation rankings and our possible spaces with the top 10 I am always saying every time that we deserve to be in the top 10 when people who have not got any education through jihad technology as well as our friend from I am Ahmedabad now I met only yesterday when NIF national innovation foundation meeting was there and you all know of Anil Gupta ji who has been spearheading grass root innovation so when there is so much innovation in our DNA why when we come to higher education we lose it out one of the things which we identified is the nature of our examinations and that's why as it is put in trust on not only curriculum revision training of faculty AI IoT machine learning deep learning robotics 3d printing they are all important but most important the kind of question paper we set and set the target for students to do something different you know that is what comes from the question paper this road learning methodology from kg to kg has to be abandoned and we need what is known as based on Bloom's taxonomy understanding of the subject the application the creativity all of that must have space in our examination question papers and that is what we have been doing and if you do that and listen to our young generation many many new things will start happening and tomorrow's apples of the world Microsoft's of the world will already there are huge number of unicorns which have come out in the last one decade from India and the number of unicorns that are likely to come from India in the next one to two decades is going to be so phenomenal that at the level Bharat not only at the level Bharat or in a support to the entire globe is going to come from India and that challenge we are all to accept and when we have a residence of the world and I'm sure we'll be able to do many many many things in the process with these two words I once again congratulate all the 10,000 participants to create submissions and the award winners whether they are called as champions or winners all of them congratulations but those who did not get anything they are also champions in my opinion they are also winners in my opinion and all the very best for continuing your journey of innovation beyond this as well thank you very much thank you thank you so much Anil sir thank you it is because of passionate professors like you and professor Kannan that we have been organizing so many events back to back in this pandemic so thank you so much sir thank you so very much sir so moving ahead may I now invite Mr. Yogesh Andle the director of Veals Global Foundation and he is also the co-founder of Polaris and Nuclear Software over to you Yogesh sir I would like to of course Yogesh just wait for a minute so I invited Yogesh to this amazing get together because he is a creator of Unicorns that professor they talked about co-founder of Polaris and Nuclear Software he is a director in Veals Global and in fact he is working very closely with Pachaiti Raj ministry in fact when I told him about this he immediately said that can we invite the secretary Pachaiti Raj ministry because they are working on a special planning and Yogesh is working with them closely in fact through him as a member of I am also a director of Veals Global so participated in some of their meetings there is so much what to do so many things to map the amazing thing and so unfortunately because of the parliament proceedings the secretary is busy he could not come but we will certainly appraise him of all the work that is happening here but I would like to let's hear from Yogesh over to you thank you professor Kannan for such a sweet introduction I wish I can live up to the words or the things that you have expressed about me good evening Dr. Sehs Mudde Professor Kannan Dr. Kannan Professor Vedya Vijayabhanu and all the participants who are present here you know just to share with you I am also connected with the institution called SOIL SOIL is a management institution called school of inspired leadership and it's been set up and we talk a lot about our spiritual heritage and a lot of teachings by Swami Chinmayanand and I remember one of the very sentence that Swami Chinmayanand often said he said many of us feel are impossible in fact he says turn it around youth are saying impossible if you allow me to be and this is what we see here that when we give them an opportunity give them a challenge the kind of outcomes the young people come out with is absolutely amazing I was listening to Dr. Kannan's presentation and saw glacial lake, covid response stubble burning, locus nesting, poverty based in electrical vehicle network flood inundation crime against I mean all kind of applications have been talked out it's so phenomenal to see that young people have been able to visualize data converging the spatial, the satellite maps with ground data and coming out with such a beautiful representation when we talk to Mr. Sunil who said that he said that look in towns we have town planning department but what happens is the villages and the rural communities and especially the ones which are situated next to the highways highway or the national highways we see over decades the highway creates a bypass around the bypass a lot of development takes place and the rural community remains where they were fighting, struggling for their daily needs they have a highway somewhere dividing the village into two halves crossing the highways a pain for them the development takes place across the highway but this side of the place it's like a situation, no development takes place development simply bypasses rural communities so can we create a spatial planning as an example or an illustration for some of the you know rural communities, villages so he gave this problem to 17 institutions they took a few grand panchats around them and created some special maps as to how the development could look like over the next two decades something of that sort so you know why I'm sharing this is we are also working with many many grand panchats with Deshtan Institute of Rural Development and Panchayati Raj I'm sure many of you would be aware that these grand panchats today are recognized as the third government there's a central government, the federal government, the state government and these are local governments and I have seen with my own personal experience visiting these villages that you can actually see democracy in action in these grand panchats the grand sabha all the adults of a village if they get together sit down in a grand sabha they can take a decision about what they want what development do they want and how do they want to develop and all this that you have done here the spatial planning and everything is absolutely relevant at that place but just imagine if some of us could sit with some of the grand panchats around us use the ISRO map show to them how does the lay of land look like around their village where the highway is passing what is the gradient where the water bodies are what is happening to their forest cover suddenly you can visualize these these villagers have their innate wisdom they will figure out much better way to develop themselves control themselves control their own destiny we are seeing that happening in many places wherever we have been able to create this communication this information we have been able to share give you an example in Maharashtra we have an NGO called GSMT Grameen Samasya Mukthi Trust and the GSMT has picked up villages has trained a local youngster in using the GIS spatial data and the data they are able to get from the district panchats district collectors and create a development plan for the region and today those villages are having a turnover of crores of rupees because they know which forest resource they have to conserve where they do have to where they have to do social forestry what is available to them what they have to carry how they have to carry how they have to visualize water bodies it's unimaginable the kind of transformation that takes place there so I'm so excited to be a part of this community which has looked at all this spatial data looked at multiple things brought in wonderful solutions so it's hats off to the team which organized it thank you for encouraging everybody you know this the purpose of a leader is not to tell what you have to do the purpose of a leader is to follow what you want to do and give the blessings and it's absolutely I know him personally I have met you sir many a times and on many occasions and have seen the way you encourage the people around in the way you encourage your team and you let the team go ahead and you know the absolute phenomenal results, phenomenal outcomes we have seen thank you hearty congratulations to everybody I'm very very happy I'll be willing to contribute talk to you you want to reach out to me and of course the Karnan can share all our contact details we'll be very happy to support you from in multiple ways through FICI where I'm connected with the FICI startup committee and FICI science and technology committee through our institute called SOIL through our organization called VEALS through our own social initiative called Mission Samriti you name it we will find we'll reach you and you know just let us know what you want to do thank you and wish you all the best you guys we want many more wheels to come actually we have to put all our students on to the wheels yes wheels are going to be with anybody yeah more unicorns actually more unicorns thank you sir thank you thank you so much Mr. Yogesh for sharing your wonderful thoughts with us thank you so much sir so now we would like you know to the participants of this contest to share their experiences with us you know about this mapathon so the stage is now open to all of you who would like to share their thoughts please go ahead would any participant want to say anything about how they went about solving difficulties you faced challenges you faced and how did you think of this idea whether you knew QGIS how did you learn this who encouraged you anything you want to share anything we have a few minutes we welcome the participants to say a few words about your experience go ahead please good evening respected sirs this is Dr. Kema from Shri Ramakrishna in college Coimbatore and good evening respected dignitaries Anil sir Pendant sir and I don't remember other dignitaries I am very glad to be a part of this event and thank you for giving us such a great opportunity because mapathon is a unique event before few years and all we didn't have this much awareness about such concepts and this event tells us the importance and opportunities available in remote sensing in so many areas using remote sensing data we can there is a lot of exploration we can explore it to the extent we can give solutions for any concept from A to Z regarding this we had an opportunity and hope we utilize it to an extent and nothing more to say sir thanks on and on and regarding the open source data available as well as the open source software handy tools which can be utilized by even common people to get a better information or management solutions thank you so much sir thank you would you want to say what problem you solved sir I we gave a solution about the groundwater potential donation map of Averi river basin as well as we gave some information about spatial variation of pollution in the basin for an area of about 2400 square kilometer actually what we did was we had a research about the water quality studies in the four rivers especially in the Kaveri river as well as its four tributaries in the basin the groundwater samples in the basin were also studied and all these data were merged with the thematic maps and satellite imageries with the help of SWAT software and we could able to get the zonation of pollution variation in the basin thank you doctor Hemma thank you sir so professor Kanan may I make an observation for all the participants who are present here please go ahead okay now I'm just wondering can we can all of us together as a community think of one issue one data where we can put all our heads together and give a solution something that comes to my mind as I was hearing you what is it that will be produced in the agricultural fields of India this year we have special data we have local intelligence can we put together a district map in this district these are this is the estimate of these kind of crops that will come up and if we can consolidate over the country we know what we are likely to produce next time knowing that the farmers then can figure out if this has been produced this is what the consumption is likely to be what should I plan next year you know very good if we can think of some of these issues like this combine all our collective strength and look and generate some data information for the villagers for the farmers just imagine what we can do today I have absolutely no idea what they should be growing they just grow either based on what they know area or what they hear from others what do you Professor Kannan we will take it up thank you and I will be willing to support you whichever way you want me to excellent we will come to you we can discuss it afterwards we are also supporting you thank you thank you so much sir thank you so I guess now there are no more participants who would like to share so we would proceed towards the end of this result declaration ceremony so may I now please invite Usha Viswanathan she is a senior project manager at project 4C so please formally give the vote of thanks Usha I am over to you thank you Yesh and I am very happy to do this and thank you for giving me this opportunity thank you everyone for

motivated a lot of these participants and we are very thankful to him for being a part of this event and many of the other events which we have actually conducted previously also and we expect him to continue supporting us in the future events also sir and next is our PI Professor Kannan who actually is as Professor Sahasrabudde told that having a lot of ideas and what to say and always a constant support and inspiration to the whole team for C and Professor Penan who actually is the co-PI for the UGIS initiative under the FOSSI project and I also would like to thank all the other special invitees who have actually motivated the participants and given their valuable thoughts and a special thanks to all our partners especially ISRO AICT, IIT Bombay and the entire FOSSI team who had worked very hard it was really 2-3 months of constant effort for us to make this a big success and thank you all. I would also like to thank our funding agency the Ministry of Education Government of India for their constant support and lastly but not least our participants who actually enthusiastically participated we have around 600-700 actual good submissions so that is also a great thing so thank you all and I congratulate you all and wishing you all a very good evening.

My name is Kevin and Ireland seems to be going into lockdown again We're already on level three and it's only time before we level up, you know with the amount of gamers We have in Ireland so I figure I best prepare for the inevitable and play some quarantine simulators Which look just awful. I do have 26 years practice and self isolating But you know what the more practice the better. Oh Made with unity I love to see it right the first one If I can figure out where the title is is just called quarantine simulator I don't think they have the title on the title screen. That's fine. Not many options either, but that's also fine Wait, I click continue, but I don't have a game. Hold on. I've never played this before new cases of COVID 19 We're registered this week. What how do I walk? Why am I so small? Why is my house glitching out? Wait, hold on help. Yes. Help H It does nothing Can't get any help Wests also can't do anything. Oh, oh wait. There we go quest still live for 10 days Oh, that's gonna be hard. What is this menu system? Oh? Okay, a watching center for 500 times is one of my quest gotta grow some vegetables It's trying to take a super bath What is this? I don't think I'm gonna be buying this game for a long I'm just gonna keep bathing look at the time just flying by wait. What is going on here? How to kick cat come on just a few more naps before I soil myself. Oh, there I go You died Another person dead To napping 17 to one this week naps are much more dangerous than you think people think twice before you nap Let's try a new game, okay So it looks like the only difference between continue a new game is you get some instructions at the start of new game If you click continue, it's also a new game economics became crazy. Nobody understood. What will happen tomorrow? Everybody understood. This is a point of no God, I love it Stop on a black screen Maybe I just died in the intro. Okay. I can skip. I didn't realize the black screen was optional new cases Go away. I don't want to hear about it. All right. What's this? What can I do with this? Did I just print off my own little award? Is that the city? Oh, that is meant to be the city I thought it was just a weird textured wall. Okay. This is on graphics ultra by the way Can I put this down? I want to put it on very low It's the exact same Literally no difference. What does this say? I can't see because of the cursor here choice your career I'm gonna go with this because I don't know what it is. Maybe it's a logger. There we go Wait, do I get another career now?

I want to watch Santa ver vera. It that was one of the achievements I can't I don't have enough money. All right. You know what time for a super bath. What is a super bath? Is it this why do I have to pay for it? Maybe it's a sponge bath. Someone comes in and gives me a sponge bath I take a little nap and then come back out to eat. This is so confusing to play. It's really disorientating All right full lunch. There we go And now let's go back out and what time is it? It's too late to work. Okay. We got to sleep then or something I guess I'll just watch Harry Potter until I go to bed. Why is everyone laughing? What is this music by the way? It's so dramatic. I must have just conked on the couch because it's the next day. Let's go to work as a Roger, I don't know. Do I have enough money to buy that movie yet? No, what? If it takes three days to get enough money to buy a feckin movie online, what is going on with the economy? Wait what I forgot to eat.

Thank you Just got a notification saying I'm tired if I don't sleep I will die Extreme isn't it? Like I already died from sleeping and if I forget to sleep I also died. This world is very cruel. I Died I went to work and I feckin died for I don't know what reason and now they're showing this swing Which again, I don't understand. All right. I think we're done with that game. It was so good It's really set the bar high for the next two quarantine games.  It's really about this game Thank you Indie Wolf games. Was this made by Indie Wolf games? Don't remember having to take a dump so often in a single gaming session ever before this game Also the amount of exercise you have to do just not to die of weighing like a truck Encourages me to make my journey to a real life fridge to compensate the virtual calories loss and the kitten is a nice touch Look the majority think it's fantastic. I'm clearly in the wrong. There we go I left my review trying to find the balance between sleeping enough and not sleeping too much is Exhilarating 10 out of 10. All right. This one is straight to the point. It's coronavirus quarantine simulator made with unity Oh We might get a three out of three on this one. What is this fancy? What is it punk? What?  Is that the loading screen? It was great. I enjoyed that This game's already off to a good start. All right the patch notes remove chicken confusing items. That's enough for me Okay, so this is like a point-and-click thing as well at least it's easier to understand what's going on and Sleeping only does good things instead of like oh god. I'm dying again, but at least it didn't go you slept too much You're dead. I imagine that I better set my alarm don't want to oversleep or I might just die I need to buy groceries. My health is plummeting. All right. I am here for the grocery Walking a little bit off-sided hold on hold on I got this. Where's the toilet paper?  I want your entire stock of this as well. What am I grabbing what I'm grabbing my cart behind me I think I've just broken both my arms Excuse me. There's no toilet paper. Please sir. Please please sir. Help me. Why are they all moody?

Okay, we're done with this game This came so unforgiving. He just broke social distancing measures And I immediately turn around and die You know, it's interesting like these are clickable and it brings you to why social distancing is important and what? What it prevents and and how what what do I talk about? Yeah, there you go I Hope that helps. That's your PSA from me. All right on a scale of one to pretty good. I'm gonna put it at like W I think yeah, I think it double you the hand washing is the best part of the whole game Well, it's good to know that I got the best experience I could get There's a few people talking about like how this is the perfect game to explain my non yet born Grandson's dogs and guests from Mars how the quarantine time was I don't really think it is Also, don't call me your little popcorn. All right. Don't worry. I saved the best for last likely I thought this would just be a little mini game that might be nice to play. It's a bit different You know at the end of the video, but actually This is what I'm hoping is the best game we play now and please it can't be worse surely look at it It's already cute. No, stop it. I don't want any bad news. Stop it. I'm not listening Okay, we got interact and chores list perfect good start to a game Um, I have a lot to do today But I'll try some time after I do all the plan chores to enroll that online guitar course that I was told about But that I need to pick up my guitar the guitar pick in my laptop and take to the My room, okay sweep the house take out the trash perfect. It's already funky fresh. This music is great.  Oh wait. I'm your dad. Sorry. I mean, yeah, I guess looking at you now I'm not sure you're even real. I think you're plastic She said daddy. Can you help me with my homework later? And I said I just walked away. What's my other chore sweep the house and I gotta eat Okay, this is a lot more user-friendly than the other games. What are you doing there? Oh, you're just sweeping, okay? Looks a bit suspicious he really needs to go to the bathroom, but I'm not done sweeping Wait, what you freaked out. I pissed myself once come on That's a bad day. You don't just give up on life because of it his speedrun get away get away I got a speedrun this second game as brush Okay, we'll just brush everywhere fast before he needs to eat or go to the toilet the key to speedrunning this game Is getting good or ng with the puddles that you have to sweep. You'll notice this time There's no puddle in my daughter's bedroom, which makes it the optimal sweeping routine That's the noise of success Okay, look at that chores done and guitar stuff we gathered and I didn't even piss myself well done Thank you very much. Oh, yes, he's getting good It was all worth it doing those chores to get this moment of peace just me and my guitar Yes, honey that beautiful music is me I see you've come to congratulate me and how good I've gotten or just stare at me screens gone black I think she killed me. She didn't like that song. I have to sweep the house again. Do I really have to sweep every single day? What is that noise?  I got to get around to that as soon as possible nothing like lifting some heavy things to make you feel like the strong Chad you are right Chad. He's not listening to me. How do I work out at the TV? I can't do this while holding these just put the brush down for a second. What does my reject daughter do all day? She's just sitting there. Her eyes look dead. She hasn't blinked in two days. Oh, yes, the moonwalk my favorite workout routine How is that okay? Maybe don't do that weird breathing noise on a dark screen you working out at home Really, that's funny considering you haven't been to a gym for the past three years Why are you shaming me for just trying to better myself? I haven't eaten two days by the way I've been completing my chores so fast that I actually don't have to eat by the end of the day So I've just been fasting. Sorry kiddo. Just cleaning your cupboard there.   Hasn't blinked in three days hasn't moved in three days We're closing the dryer. Where's the dryer? Oh, it's down there. Hurry. Hurry. Hurry. I don't want to eat today Oh god I gotta put back the cleaning products take shot of that old family recipe where where where quick quick where it's not here Where could it be? Where could it be? I found it? Okay, good good. You're about to die, dude It's getting late. No, no, no quick. Yes. Did I do the recipe? Thank God. You're gonna berate me for cooking now You know, I've been trying to stay clear the news. It's getting a bit neurotic honey. We've talked about this. Okay It's important to know what's going on, but this excessive information. It's not doing you any good It's all right to disconnect yourself a little. It's trying to tell me how to live my life Meanwhile, they just neglect their daughter in that room for three days. It doesn't even have the strength to move Whoa, that was the old family recipe Where did you get a full-sized pig onto the fourth day? I mean a new record when it comes to these games I did I make it? I think I made it to about the third or fourth day in the first game, but I really didn't want to There's only so much Harry router you can watch in a row you freaked out Yeah, that's probably because child protective services is at the door. Anyway, we are gonna end it there I hope you enjoyed the video If you like my stuff, I post every single day I also have a second channel and I also stream over on twitch You'll find a link to both of those in the description, but yeah, I hope you enjoyed I appreciate you watching as always it does mean a lot to me and I hope to see you next time


station and today we're doing the fourth railway in our series of visiting every miniature railway in Britain so just left the railway station and we got a little walk now you can see it says model village fire footpath at top of path continue left and left again so that's where we're going we're going to beckonscott model village now this is a place that has featured quite a lot on Henry's adventures another sign there it's beckonscott model village it's featured quite a lot on Henry's adventures more so on the model village itself but today we're going there to do the miniature railway so we're just walking up from beckonsfield railway station in beckonsfield new town this is the Chilton mainline out of London Mariborne now this section of line is fairly recent in railway terms it only opened in 1906 it was known as the final link there was already a railway at High Wickham which came up from Maidenhead that section is still open as far as Bourne end with a branch to Marlow and then unfortunately they closed the section up to High Wickham so this section was opened about a mile south of the town or mile north actually of the town of Beckonsfield so this is what is now known as Beckonsfield new town so I've kind of gone the other way so I've walked towards the town centre I followed the path up to this residential area so before the railway all of this would have just been fields and they put the railway station on the road which runs from Beckonsfield to Penn and this area grew up around it there's another sign model village so beckonscott model village first opened in 1929 so it's now 90 years old it had been gradually developing in the 1920s when Ronan Cunningham had some land he had a swimming pool with a model railway around the swimming pool which had outgrown his house and then a few buildings started to appear around it and then a swimming pool became a lake and the model village opened to the public as Beckonscott model village and then in 2001 the Beckonscott light railway was added which has grown a couple of times had a few extensions since it opened so we'll go and have a look at all of that as well but we will take a trip on it I'll show you tell you a bit of the history as it's fairly recent history of the Beckonscott light railway so we've now come on to St Michael's Green because I've called out after St Michael's Church so that is like the Anglican parish church for Beckonsfield Newtown there is another Anglican church up at the old town so you've got this lovely green area model village just behind those houses over there so we're almost there so you can see just how easy it is to get to by train we're doing a whole walk from the railway station up to the model village churches open I have been in there before so I won't go there today but it's a pleasant church so if you wish to do go and have a look so we've almost arrived this is Warwick Road just coming up to the model village so the plan today really is to have a ride on it I'm going to tell you a bit of the history I'll show you how the railway has extended over the years we will feature the model village just a little bit but I have done all that before so perhaps after I've had a ride on the train I'll just walk into the village and show you what's there if you want to see where I explored the whole village then you need to see some of my earlier videos if you come by car you can see there's a sign and your park behind St Theresa's Church that's the Catholic Church of Beckonsfield which there's a model of inside the model village so we are very nearly there now so the town centre is that way as you see it says welcome to Beckonscot and here is his Beckonscot model village so let's go inside and we shall have a ride on the Beckonscot like railway so you approach the village by walking up this narrow path between the houses feels a bit when you get here you think well where is the village but you should soon see welcome to Beckonscot over Mark 1 carriage that's where you pay to get in so I'm gonna go pay to get in and I'll see you inside so I've just paid to come in I have bought my ticket to go on the Beckonscot like railway so this is the Mark 1 carriage and the railway station is just here so we've just got to wait for the train it shows a picture of their diesel it looks like the train isn't here so what we'll do we just have a little look around here so as I said this is the current railway station if you look around here the railway exits the station goes off up in that direction but this here this is a disused station this is the original railway station and the evidence of that is as you can see there is still a small section of turntable remaining it's now kind of become the yard you can see some of their spare carriages there's an electric locomotive just here called Bouncer I can hear the train so the train must be due back soon it's also quite cool it's all nicely fully signal so you've got some nice little semaphore signals and they've also got some ex color light signals I believe some of them came from the Brighton line and some came from Sonning Cutting so what I'm gonna do now I'm gonna queue up over there and I'm gonna wait for the train to arrive and we're gonna have our train right this is entrance to railway so just go up here you can also see they're rather unusual turntable which has points on the turntable and I think that might be the train yeah here it comes it's a tram like a train so once he's ready I'm gonna jump on and we shall have the ride so here we go a horrible trip on the Beckinscott light railway behind their tram now they've just had a quick look in the end shed because in the end shed are two things there's the locomotive which isn't out today this diesel here that's the one which features on the sign I pointed out so this is used on their busy day so obviously which is really cool is this painting of a tunnel I particularly like the painting there's a reason why because it was actually painted by my sister believe it or not this is my sister's artwork so I'm sure you agree with me she's done a fantastic job and a lot of people when they see from over there genuinely do think it's a tunnel sometimes ask why they don't take people that way so yeah this is my sister's artwork at the Beckinscott so following our visit to the shed the other thing I wanted to talk to you about was you may have noticed as we went round there was a couple of two foot gauge wagons that's because there was originally a railway here when they constructed Beckinscott and they approximately ran up here it was two foot gauge and they think that the wagons would have been put just pushed by hand there was no locomotive and they would have run up and down to bring spoil in and out of the village now the other thing I've been given permission to do is to see a more recent disused railway now the minute roger's round up here there's these level crossing gates it says staff only they've given me permission to come through here and we're going to walk on possibly one of the shortest disused railways ever and that is just here see that path because when the railway first opened it came up here as it does now it went up there and it went around and it came across here where this path is took a bit of truck up there and went round again and they used to be a race course here the race course has now moved to the other side of Beckinscott model village and a boating lake has been created so what we're going to do now is we're just going to walk along this very short section of disused railway obviously a more modern bridge has been put in because that's quite steep gradient and there's the famous Beckinscott stroke Hollywood sign so this is the boating lake and then the railway would have when it got to the end of this path it would have rejoined the track beds there so all of what you see there is the new part of the railway so we have just walked on what must be the shortest disused railway footpath there is and we're now going to walk back and we'll go and have a quick look in the village so I have already been here before I did a series once before Beckinscott in about six parts where we explored the whole of the model village so I'm not going to do too much now but since we're here let's just go and see the gauge one railway quickly we'll finish up there because that's more what Beckinscott is famous for the miniature railways great but this is what most people when I think the Beckinscott think of the model village a lot of people actually come so I didn't know there was a miniature railway here so we're going to go up here and I think I have just noticed something a new building that wasn't here when I last visited so we might just have to go and feature that so get to here here is the gauge one model railway now you may recognize that station Green Haley that's because it is a model of Beckinsfield station where we started so we started at Beckinsfield station the full-size version and here we are at the miniature or the model version so let's just see nice see a nice good strain going round another building it wasn't here when we originally came was this building here this is the brush factory I believe it's modeled on a brush factory in Kings Langley so I think that's a really nice model they've got here with an industrial scene by the gauge one model railway what I'm gonna do I'm gonna walk around to the other side so we can see the other side of it this is Beckinscott town which features all of this features apart from the new buildings in the original Beckinscot here is the train coming in a minute so here is the other side of the brush factory it's a really nice model nice to see a big tall chimney and you've got the whole of Beckinscott behind so that is the brush factory now the one other thing I want to before we finish I'm gonna now go the wrong way around there was a building this is the zoo Chessnade zoo a mixture of Chessington Zoo and Wichnade Zoo incidentally Wichnade won't feature on the miniature of Britain series because it's a narrow gauge railway and nor Chessington because it no longer has a railway which is a real shame so we just go around here so we were up there I'm gonna go and look at the one last other new building and then I think it'll be time to go back to the railway station so just come up here this would have featured in the last video church army it looks like here we have an old remains of an old mine you can see is a little ruin small ruin there there's the remains of like a bit here and there's even an abandoned bit of railway line going into the mine itself so yeah that is before we finish this video there's the circus by the way let's just see one more train on the gauge one which we should see a train come around here after the windmill very soon because they run very regularly it's probably one of the busiest railways anywhere certainly one of the busiest model railways we'll see a train pass I think I can hear one and then the time to end our visit second spot incidentally why wait for the train you can just see the threshing machine on the farm and the windmill turning the pan the camera around this way you see the fairground and there is this GK Chesterton fresh from over so I'm gonna head back to railway station now the full-size railway station I hope you enjoyed this video thank you very much for watching and goodbye


But okay, so we at this convention I heard a lot of background noise about feminism and you can't run from it I I actually love sharing that topic with you guys because you guys have a lot to say but You know, I think when women are that extreme. They're not speaking a language I think when men are that extreme. They're not speaking a big language You know, how can we as men like get more in touch with who we are and what we should be doing rather than listening extreme movements of the the MRAs and then the you know the feminists and all this confusion back and forth fatherhood fatherhood every Problem that we see out in the social world comes back to an under fathered generation the second or third generation of under fathered American kids and As far as I'm concerned feminism exists to destroy fatherhood that feminism is the the women's auxiliary of the Marxist movement It is part and parcel of Marxism and Marxism wants to undermine all social institutions But the perfect social institution to undermine is the family and the way you under undermine the family is remove the father And this is what feminism whatever goals feminists insist they're seeking what they have successfully done is remove fathers from the family And an unfathered family is is an arm of the state because mom and the kids have nowhere else to turn But to the state whether it's family court or the welfare system one way or another They become Yet another agency of the state because they have nowhere else to go Our civilization was built by hoplite Greeks by fathers serious dedicated fathers who were fully married fully committed to their children Fully committed to their lands and if necessary, they would fight to defend their lands And if they needed to defend their territory, they would join together in phalanxes and fight as Armies to repel invaders. This is the story of the 300 a wonderful movie for men to see if you want to see masculinity at its finest But I think that's that's what feminism is and if people want to send me hate mail about that feel free It's I'm easy to find I'm not gonna give you my email address, but just Google Greg's one. You'll find me I'm not trying to be confrontational or provocative. I'm trying to defend the fatherhood because that's what's gonna repair civilization What I hear you saying is an enforced culture That's the alternative terrible thing. Well, that's the alternative to two father-led homes There is no alternative to father-led homes except tyranny and it may not happen right away But if you're moving toward tyranny, eventually you get to North Korea Well, and I'd say we have clear examples of where that's at now. I I'll say two major problems on thoughts I'm normally very vocal against feminism. I I find it a just a heinous immoral proposition It's for a number of reasons, but I would sit down and say the phenomenal thing about the 21 convention is James Marshall's speech covered a lot about feminism I was directly offended by some of the things he said I thought they were outrageous. I found them repugnant I had an opportunity to address that in the hallway remarkably enough and It in not necessarily I was directing him. It was a question, but we're standing together Yeah, and for the first time and I know many times guys who deal with human rights issues or any of those things Where you talk about things we're just not heard and that's our big right And so I literally spoke at length because the James's were there the James's Yeah, yeah, and they all six six-foot monsters. Yeah. Yeah, I know it's a you came right up on the tail end of them so James McClain was literally asking well tell me about this and the story led directly to These things and I had to acknowledge James Marshall and some of the things he did absolutely very very clean He was right, but he did something a feminist never has done before with me. I've never experienced before He listened right he truly listened now. I don't know what he was thinking, but I don't care Okay, he respected me and created room for dialogue and right now there is no room for dialogue absolutely not room for dialogue I have been threatened I've been put on FBI watch list because of just the fact that I spoke up that I wanted a voice to be able to talk About rational things in a rational same way And so we can sit down and say we can argue all those things But the reality is I can't get to the future if I keep looking in the past Yeah, see I mean like I really agree with you, you know James told me his speech was going to be very controversial like a couple months ago. And so I was interested to hear


This study investigated the effects of dietary protein and carbohydrates, along with moisture levels, on the growth and development of black soldier flies. It found that larval development was negatively affected by high moisture levels, while protein and carbohydrate levels did not have a significant effect. Additionally, larvae reared on a balanced diet, 21% protein, 21% carbohydrate, at 70% moisture developed the fastest and had the highest survival rate compared to other diets. Furthermore, adults produced from these larvae had longer lifespans and higher egg production rates than those from other diets. Overall, this study suggests that black soldier flies can be used as a sustainable source of protein and energy from organic waste. This article was authored by Jonathan A. Kamak and Jeffrey K.
