Q. Which institute has developed a web app called Dynamic Route Planning for Urban Green Mobility (DRUM)?
Answer: IIT Kharagpur
Notes: Recently, IIT (Indian Institute of Technology) Kharagpur developed a web app called Dynamic Route Planning for Urban Green Mobility (DRUM). DRUM is like Google Maps but also helps users choose routes based on air quality and energy efficiency. It offers five route options: shortest, fastest, Least Exposure to Air Pollution (LEAP), Least Energy Consumption Route (LECR), and a combined suggested route. It uses live pollution and traffic data fetched instantly when a user enters a route. The app uses GraphHopper and Mapbox for real-time routing and traffic updates.
