The Department of Civil Engineering has organized 3-days’ training on Drone Mapping and Surveying from 5th to 7th Baisakh, 2080 to the college faculties.
The training on Drone Mapping and Surveying was aimed at providing comprehensive information on using a drone/UAV device for engineering survey. The main objectives of the training were to introduce participants to the principles and fundamentals of drone surveying and mapping; train participants about planning of a drone survey mission, including flight paths, altitudes, and camera settings; provide hands-on practice on flying drones and collecting data; provide hands-on practice on processing of the captured data on image processing software and web-based platform; guide participants about different forms of outputs obtained from image processing platform and their use in engineering as well.
The training was focused on imparting faculties with practical skills (with hands on data capturing and processing sessions) and preparing them for responsible and compliant use of this technology in their academic endeavors. The training was conducted by lecturer Er. Bibek Thapa and Senior Lecturer Er. Ramesh Bala.
