GIVING FILLIP TO the Centres e-governance initiatives, Andhra Pradesh is leading itself in this direction with innovative use of emerging technologies. Atluri Rama Rao, Executive Director (Technical), Andhra Pradesh State FiberNet (APSFL), shares how drones are changing traditional governance and administration activities.
The state of Andhra Pradesh is known to be a forerunner in adoption of latest technologies in e-governance initiatives across numerous areas; from healthcare to mobility, citizen services to government departments' processes. One of the most differentiating factors of Andhra Pradesh, when compared to other states in the country, is the adoption of drone technology.
With the recent development, wherein the Government of India's Ministry of Civil Aviation announced guidelines for remotely piloted aircraft — or drones as they are more commonly known — which will come into effect from December 1, 2018, governments across the state have a plethora of use cases to delve upon. Unveiling the 'Drone Regulations 1.0', Civil Aviation Minister Suresh Prabhu had said that the guidelines would help foster technology and innovation in the development of drones — devices which have an extensive range of applications ranging from disaster relief to agriculture.
It must be noted that Andhra Pradesh is taking a lead in this direction, with its innovative use cases; which also serve as reference models for other states to follow. AP State FiberNet (APSFL), a fully owned entity of the Government of AP, has been mandated to develop and implement use of drones across the state.
