The Saudi General Authority for Roads has recently announced its adoption of drone technology to enhance safety and ensure the quality of the road network in the holy sites during the ongoing pilgrimage season.
These drones will employ thermal imaging capabilities to monitor the condition of the roads effectively.
Additionally, the authority will utilise drones to conduct automated inspections of ferries and bridges, enabling swift and accurate assessments. The Public Authority for Roads has made use of various modern technologies, including advanced surveying techniques and equipment, to accomplish these objectives.
Moreover, the authority has successfully integrated drone technology into surveying operations, resulting in improved quality and facilitating informed decision-making processes.
