The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is an autonomous agency of the Indian government responsible for managing and developing the country's national highway network. While not directly involved in space technology development, NHAI collaborates with space organizations like ISRO to use spatial technology for highway monitoring, project report preparation, and asset management. Recently, NHAI partnered with ISRO's National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC) to develop a "Green Cover Index" using satellite imagery to monitor and enhance green spaces along national highways.
