Trupti Bhattacharjee, Indranil Bhattacharjee

The corona virus (COVID-19) pandemic has virtually brought the world to its knees. Eventually, the spread of this highly infectious disease will be slowed down, but the world will never be the same as we knew it. Remote sensing and Geographical Information system (GIS) can play a powerful role in supporting experts as well as policymakers for formulating plans and policies on how to tackle this unprecedented calamity by mapping and analyzing the spread and effects of this disease around the globe.
