#CTALegacy: The PanAfrican #Agribusiness Incubators Conference & Expo 4-9 October 2016, which took place in Accra, #Ghana set the foundations for CTA support to the introduction of #drone technology for #agriculture across the #Africa|n continent | Outcome: Africa Goes Digital Inc. 🏆

We welcome Nana Acheampong to our team as a #program & #Outreach coordinator. Nana A. Acheampong has a background in #Political #science | #City and #Regional #Planning and she is enthused about #drones #uavs application in city planning and #agriculture. Africa Goes Digital Inc.

Interesting experience in #Ghana concerning the deployment of #drone technology to facilitate physical property assessment for #tax collection purposes. #digitalisation #innovation #droneservices. Read more: afgoesdigital.com/uav-drone-phot… | #taxation #transparency #drones #RPAS #UAV

Our member Maptech Kenya 🇰🇪 is experienced in mapping informal settlements. One project focused on Kahawa Soweto in #Nairobi. His contribution allowed local officials to avail of #high res #imagery for the development of #urban improvement plans. Read more: afgoesdigital.com/mapping-inform…

The smile with CTA logo speaks a lot. When my son grows up I will tell him about CTA and how supportive they have been to Ziongate Geospatial 🇬🇭 with this pix. I guess he will be very happy to see his dad this excited. #CTALegacy #workshop #Benin

The Zimbabwean award-winning start-up Alley Capital Group 🇿🇼, assembles #drones & offers crop-spraying services. Their equipment is replacing traditional #crop spraying platforms which are less efficient may cause #pesticide-linked health and environmental problems tinyurl.com/ycs7g42r

An insight from a highly #georeferenced | #uav | #orthophoto about the project area was very helpful at the #residential #layout design stage. #Parcel demarcation & pillaring was sweaty fun in the end. Giacomo Rambaldi Abdelaziz Lawani Africa Goes Digital Inc.

So far #Pix4Dreact from pix4d is the #fastest 2D #processing soft we have used, thanks to Gabriele Ruggiero for the intro. It's super #fast, works #offline with #exporting #annotation & #reporting capabilities. In less than an #hour, we #processed over 1600 #images of our project site.

When #Queenelizabeth visited #Ghana in 1961, she referred to #Kumasi Metro as the #garden #city of West #Africa due to its vast #greeneries in those days. 2020 trend analysis shows a huge decline . From garden city to a complete #greyfield. Need to take action @OtumfuoCharity

As #urban areas continue to expand, there is a need for local governments to ensure an orderly development process and manage the physical space and the environment. #Drones can play a very important role as our member Ziongate Geospatial 🇬🇭 reports: 🔗tinyurl.com/ybf3bjcp | #RPAS #UAV

Un projet de recherche financé par le CTA et conduit par #INERA et Espace Géomatique 🇧🇫 au #BurkinaFaso, a démontré que l’utilisation des #drones permet aux petits agriculteurs de mieux maîtriser les coûts de production du riz irrigué et d’optimiser les rendements tinyurl.com/ycb623p5 🌾

A #Madagascar, la technologie du #drone accélère le processus de règlement de #conflit #foncier, un des problèmes fondamentaux des paysans malagasy. Les #données #numériques et cartographiques qu’elle fournit contribuent au #développement local. A lire:🔗 tinyurl.com/y3pkw6su

The #layout of a #facility can contribute to its #place experience. Sad to say, many SHS' in #Ghana lack campus layout. Guided by #drone I #uav generated #orthomosaic #contour #DTM, we are working with Dwamena Akenten SHS authorities to prepare land use layout to guide its dev't.

Our #cartographers combine #drone I #uav survey outputs e.g high-resolution imagery & #dtm with that of #conventional survey e.g #GCPs, to design #town #land use #plans that conform to #subdivision regulations in #Ghana. This approach is #faster #accurate & #cost effective

From a #garden city status to the otherwise, we present to you #land cover dynamics - the loss of #greenery areas, particularly loss of #forests and vegetation along #river course to urban or exurban development within #Kumasi Metropolis, #Ghana from 1986 to 2020. @KumasiMetro
