#InnoSpark Bytes — विज्ञान Tech 2026 | In-House Innovation Spotlight Series Meet Dr Sivakumar Gopal, Senior Principal Scientist and Project Leader, Weather Observing Development Technologies, at the CSIR - National Aerospace Laboratories (NAL). Driven by the vision of an #Atmanirbharat, Dr. Gopal and his team have developed Navy Met, India's Indigenous Comprehensive Weather Observing System. The technology provides critical real-time weather information, including visibility, wind speed, temperature, humidity, and pressure, enabling safer aircraft take-offs and landings. Navy Met is poised for commercial technology transfer. Developed entirely in India, the system offers world-class performance at nearly one-fourth the cost of imported alternatives, strengthening India's self-reliance in aviation meteorology. #BioTech #Innovation #DBTIndia #विज्ञानTech2026 #MakeInIndia Dr Jitendra Singh Rajesh Gokhale BRIC DBT Regional Centre for Biotechnology National Agri-Food Biotechnology Institute (NABI) BRIC-National Institute of Animal Biotechnology (NIAB) Institute for Stem Cell Science and Regenerative Medicine (BRIC-inStem) | Institute of Life Sciences |Institute of Bioresources and Sustainable Development (IBSD) |BRIC-National Institute of Plant Genome Research|National Brain Research Centre, Gurgaon |BRIC-NCCS Pune|BRIC - Centre for DNA Fingerprinting and Diagnostics (CDFD) |Translational Health Science and Technology Institute (THSTI) |
