Panaji, Margao & Cuncolim First to Get 3D Drone Land Survey
The Goa government has started a new 3D-based land Drone survey using drones under the NAKSHA scheme of the Central government. This pilot project will first cover the municipal areas of Panaji, Margao, and Cuncolim.
As part of the initiative, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) will capture high-resolution images of these areas. Using these drone images, teams from the Revenue and Municipal Administration Departments will conduct field surveys to prepare accurate, geo-tagged maps of properties and land parcels.
These new digital maps will be linked with property tax data maintained by local bodies, making land records more transparent and reliable.

Residents will also get a chance to review and raise objections if they notice any errors or mismatched details in the survey maps. Additionally, unclaimed or vacant land parcels identified during the process will be forwarded to the Collector for action under the Goa Escheats, Forfeiture and Bona Vacantia Act, 2024.
A senior official said the NAKSHA project (short for National Geospatial Knowledge-Based Land Survey of Urban Habitations) aims to modernize the land survey process using advanced GIS and 3D mapping technology. The survey has already begun in the pilot areas and is expected to expand to other towns in the future.
