Abstract
3D Smart Maps are an initiative of Adikara firm aimed to provide a navigation tool which will help navigate even illiterate people in a temporary town (Sadhugram) made for the sadhus and pilgrims who will come to take a holy bath in river Godavari during Nashik-KUMBH 2015 (Kumbh is largest peaceful gathering in the World). Fifty-two Maps were provided throughout Sadhugram (i.e. in 375 acres) for this purpose, and the Maps were designed so that it can even be read by illiterate people and were very easy to understand and be interpreted.
