Garuda Aerospace sets record by mapping 7,000 villages in U.P. using drones
The Chennai-based drone start up Garuda Aerospace has successfully mapped 7,000 villages in Uttar Pradesh under the Svamitva Scheme. It had won the tender from the nodal agency, the Survey of India in September 2021. As per the tender, it was authorised to deploy drones for large-scale mapping and digitisation of land records in rural areas. This would empower land-owners and farmers with accurate digital land certificates and a unique ID enabling them obtaining a precise layout with all relevant information.
