ITANAGAR, 2 May: The health & family welfare department, along with the Quality Council of India (QCI), is going to organise a ‘capacity building-cum-sensitisation programme on certification scheme for unmanned aircraft system’ at the banquet hall here on 3 and 4 May.
Health Principal Secretary Dr Sharat Chauhan, along with senior officers of the health department, is scheduled to attend the programme.
The workshop is aimed at sensitising the participants to the CSUA and the requirements (technical criteria) for visual line of sight.
“The participants will be able to build knowledge on quality in the drone ecosystem and also gain information on the indicative requirements for beyond visual line of sight (BVLoS) certification,” the secretary informed, and added that the programme “intends to disseminate the scheme requirements and correct implementation to showcase India’s efforts towards creating a quality ecosystem within the drone sector by adopting global best practices.”
“It will also aid in establishing drone-enabled governance in the state by awareness on CSUAS and process of type certification, besides creating synergy between the QCI and Arunachal Pradesh to accelerate drone usage,” he said, adding that “experts from the QCI will be part of the workshop.”
