The project seeks to digitally map the entire UGD network of Mangaluru using advanced GIS technology in combination with the QField mobile application. With participation from multiple academic institutions, the effort has already achieved notable progress by mapping over 933 manholes across Wards 37, 38 and 40 out of the planned 25,000+ in the city.

Using tools such as QField and QGIS, the student teams are collecting and georeferencing detailed attributes for each manhole -including ID, depth, diameter, structural material, condition, pipe dimensions, photographs and highly accurate GPS coordinates. This comprehensive dataset enables precise visualization of the city’s sewage network and supports interactive mapping capabilities.

Once completed, the initiative is expected to significantly enhance asset visibility, issue tracking and data-driven maintenance, while also supporting long-term urban planning in Mangaluru.
