Madhya Pradesh government has decided to use drones for mapping villages. So far, land survey work is being done either manually or with the help of satellite images in Madhya Pradesh.

“The drone technology will be used for the first time to make maps in the state. 55 thousand villages of the state have been selected for mapping. Now, the map of the population area will be made on a scale of 1: 500, which will give a clearer picture of the population area.

The state revenue department has entered into an agreement in this regard yesterday with Survey of India, the country’s national mapping agency under the Ministry of Science and Technology.
