The entire drone survey is slated for completion within a strict six-month timeframe. The selection of the contractor agency and allocation of manpower for the project will be carried out through the e-bidding process.

Preparations are being made to conduct drone surveys in the villages of Zone 5 and 6, Zone 7, Zone 9, Zone 3, Zone 8 and Zone 4 under YEIDA. It is noteworthy that this drone survey will be unique in many respects and through this the process of mapping and marking the infrastructure and geographical conditions of the villages will be completed.

This work will be inspected by the CEO of YEIDA himself. The contracted agencies entrusted with the survey will not only have the responsibility to complete the task but also possess the authority to allocate manpower in order to achieve the specified targets. To facilitate the survey process, the agency will establish camps, deploying engineers and technical staff as required.
