<p>Technology firm Genesys on Wednesday said it plans to prepare a 3D map of top-100 cities across the country as part of its programme for pan-India mapping, which it will share with users and enterprises on a licence basis.</p>.<p>Without sharing the exact timeline to complete the mapping, Genesys Chairman and Managing Director Sajid Malik said the company has the capacity to finish the project for 100 cities within 18 months.</p>.<p>"We have invested Rs 200 crore till date in developing our 3D mapping technology.
