VR · Mission planning

Plan the ground. Before you take it.

HoloMap is the sand model, digitised — a fully immersive VR mission-planning platform for the Indian Armed Forces. Terrain at scale, rehearsed in full, on infrastructure you control.

The challenge

Planning still runs on paper and sand — and the briefing table sweeps flat.

The sand model

Three-dimensional, trusted by commanders for two centuries — but hours to build, impossible to save, swept flat the moment a briefing ends.

Terrain at scale

Paper maps reduce the ground to contour lines each officer must assemble alone, in their own head. No shared picture, no shared confidence.

Rehearsal

Plans are walked through once, then frozen. No way to run forward at compressed time, no way to see how movement converges and where gaps open.

Conditions

Fog, rain, and night change the ground the plan was built on. None of that survives the briefing table.

Sovereignty & compliance

Off-the-shelf planning tools assume foreign cloud, foreign map sources, and telemetry off the network. Indian formations need none of the three.

What it does

Six capabilities that separate a rehearsed plan from a hopeful one.

Planning environment

Terrain built from your own GIS

Commanders select any area of operations from a secure browser; HoloMap generates the terrain to scale from your indigenous map sources in minutes.

Collaboration

Multi-user VR, multi-site sessions

Up to fifty concurrent headsets in one shared session — together in a room or across separate secured sites — planning on the same 3D ground.

Simulation

Compressed-time rehearsal

Press play and run the plan forward. See where movement converges, where gaps open, and how line of sight changes as the operation unfolds.

Environment

Weather & time-of-day

Rehearse the same plan under fog, rain, night, and clear conditions. Observe how visibility and ground behaviour change with each.

Scale

Table scale to 1:1 immersion

Hold the whole area of operations as a model on the table. Then zoom — in one unbroken motion — down to eye level and stand inside the terrain.

Persistence

Scenario versioning

Save, branch, and hand forward complete planning sessions in full fidelity. Every rehearsal becomes a record the next commander can build on.

Deployment

Your network. Your data. Your control.

Hardware

Qualified VR headsets sized to your requirement — single-user, formation-level, or multi-formation deployments. Multi-site capable.

Software

HoloMap web application and immersive runtime. Perpetual on-premise licence, installed and run on customer-controlled infrastructure.

Network

Air-gap ready — full operation without internet access. No mandatory dependence on external cloud, no telemetry, no scenario data egress.

Compliance

DPDPA-aligned, IT Act-conformant. Role-based access for administrators and commanders, encryption in transit and at rest, audit-ready operation.
