Abstract
This paper presents the design plan for a surveyor drone to study the mine’s operations of the ODISHA state, India by the Gandhi Institute For Technology (GIFT) for the first-hand experience of surveying. The various elements of the drone-based survey are brought out. A comparison of the drone imaging to satellite imaging is done to understand the very high-resolution drone imaging to the coarse resolution satellite imaging. Both techniques involve complex image processing. The operational complexity of drone imaging in the hazardous area such as the mines is not in the sense of remote sensing activity. The attempt is a simulation exercise to show the feasibility of drone surveying as a low-cost concept. It also paves the way for understanding complimentary/supplementary features of surveyor drone and the ISRO’s remote sensing satellite imaging and to derive a design model for a GIFT’s NanoSat (ODISAT) imaging satellite for ODISHA mines.
