What the Platform Does
Six capabilities, one knowledge graph underneath them all.
SUTRA Ontology
A 212-class OWL 2 ontology — the single canonical model for all city infrastructure, from water mains and stormwater drains to heritage sites and ward boundaries.
SHACL Governance
66 shapes with 118 constraints validate every record before ingestion. Invalid data physically cannot enter the graph — governance lives in the data model, not application code.
Flood Intelligence
Physics-based SCS-CN flood simulation, validated against the October 2020 Hyderabad flood event, with vehicle-aware evacuation routing that accounts for flood depth and clearance.
City-Scale Data
18.4M+ triples live in the knowledge graph: 1.28M building footprints, 43 live data layers and 150 wards — every fact carrying full provenance.
GeoAI Agents
An agent framework for satellite monitoring, network analysis and exposure assessment — each agent reads from the knowledge graph and writes traceable results back.
City Replication
Deploy to a new city via a SKOS city profile in days — not by rebuilding the platform. Hyderabad and Amaravati profiles are live.
Built on Published Research
SUTRA's foundations are peer-reviewed — published in IJCM (2025) and ITcon (2025). A provisional patent has been filed. Read the research
Status: HDTP is a deployed technology demonstration. Government validation partnerships are in progress.
