Key Points
Geospatial organisations Allterra and NeoGeo said on Wednesday that they have collaboratively won the "largest-ever" drone-based land parcel mapping contract through an open tender process from the Karnataka government..
This work envisages deployment of approximately 60 survey-grade 'PPK' (Post Processed Kinematic) drones to capture high-resolution images to generate maps with a resolution better than 5 cm per pixel, it said..
"These digital maps will play a critical role for updating landing ownership records, ground truthing and enabling infrastructure development across the state", the companies said..
NeoGeo CEO, G V Sreeramam said it is the biggest land parcel mapping project in the world and is a leap forward in land record digitisation and development. "Along with our trusted partner, Aereo, we will collect high resolution GIS data, process the data and deliver at highest quality standards in the defined timeframe", he added..
Through our drone solutions, we aim to deliver immense value to our partners and enable the Karnataka government to create ultra-high resolution digital survey maps that have multi-sector applications..
