GAIL (India) Ltd along with National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC), a unit of Indian Space Research Organisation, has launched ‘Bhuvan-GAIL portal’ — a surveillance geo-portal utilising space technology to address pipeline security concerns, the state-owned gas utility said. GAIL, which has over 13,000 km of pipeline network, conducts monthly monitoring of pipeline Right of Use (RoU) via helicopter surveys at present.
“It will start live satellite monitoring of the pipeline RoU by January,” the statement added. The portal is operated with manual as well as auto-change analysis options to monitor the changes along natural gas pipeline RoU.
