- Description:
- Background and IntroductionEarth-observation (EO) technology advancements, including drones, satellites, mobile tools, and machine learning, are revolutionizing field data collection approaches. These technologies, particularly drones, have the potential to reach even the most remote areas, a need further highlighted by the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Their use has become widespread in South Asia, a region highly susceptible to the impacts of climate change and disaster risks. In addition to these risks, countries around the Himalayas, such as Nepal, face specific challenges due to difficult terrain, high elevations, and poor accessibility. However, these challenges have only underscored the importance of continuous EO technology usage. Nepal's drone technology ecosystem has rapidly evolved from the World Wildlife Fund-s early use for anti-poaching activities in 2012 to the influx of drones and pilots during the 2015 Earthquake. Since then, drone technology usage has expanded to several sectors, including climate change and disaster risk management, logistics, healthcare, biodiversity conservation, agriculture, mapping, photography, and videography. This increased drone adoption has consequently increased demand for skilled human resources, such as pilots, data analysts, engineers, and technicians, who understand and can adhere to directives and guidelines issued by responsible government agencies to guide and ensure the safe and secure use of drones in Nepal. Despite the progress made in the drone ecosystem in Nepal, the existing guidelines and directives lag behind drone technology innovation, and there are far fewer local pilots and geospatial analysts to meet this growing demand. In addition, most drones, analytics, and auxiliary services are imported, which is often costly, causes delayed deployment, and is not very contextualized. Also, drone policies and regulations are restrictive due to privacy and security concerns, owing to challenges such ...
