Dharavi Redevelopment: Survey Commences, Each House Receives Unique ID For Rs 23,000 Crore Makeover
The eagerly awaited survey work for the Dharavi Redevelopment Project (DRP) kicked off in Kamala Raman Nagar on Monday (18 March), marking a significant milestone in the ambitious initiative. Initiating the process, each house in the area was assigned a unique identifier, setting the stage for a comprehensive laser survey, commonly known as Lidar survey. This advanced remote sensing method utilises rapid light pulses from a near-infrared laser to gather precise measurements of each lane within the vicinity.
According to Indian Expressreport, DRP official disclosed that following the laser survey, teams will conduct thorough data collection from every tenement holder. CEO of DRP, S V R Srinivas, emphasised the importance of community cooperation, urging residents to provide accurate information to facilitate a smooth and efficient survey process. Additionally, he revealed plans for a socio-economic survey, with data meticulously stored in a centralised system for future reference.
