The Drone Centre of Excellence (DCoE) in Kohima, Nagaland, completed a Drone GIS Mapping & Survey Training Program on September 18, 2026, for officials from the Department of Health & Family Welfare (H&FW). This initiative supports the integration of drone technology into healthcare services, including medicine delivery, vector control, and health infrastructure mapping.
