Zhang Dedong, the center's deputy director, said the drone maintains remarkable stability even in harsh environments, offering users a safer, more efficient and cost-effective inspection solution than traditional methods.
He said the operators require minimal specialized training to handle it and complete mapping tasks across diverse scenarios. Compared to traditional methods in similar environments, it reduces mapping costs by nearly half, according to the center.
The center is accelerating efforts to upgrade and commercialize the drone while continuously expanding its application scenarios, it said.
