Dhanbad: Drone cameras which are nowadays being used for photography during marriage functions have better utility factors for environmental conservation and preservation measures. This has been proved by the Forest Department in Dhanbad which is using a camera to monitor the forest cover as well as various stages of plant development.
The photography and videography carried out by the drone cameras are also helping in better documentation regarding forest growth to be submitted to the Forest Survey of India, which carries inventory in forest and non forest areas and develops a database on forest tree areas.
