This case study is one of the early initiative by the Research and Innovation Unit (RIU) at Advanced College of Engineering and Management (ACEM), Nepal. Drones outfitted with Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) capability are a powerful and innovative tool for cost-effective, accurate, and efficient geospatial mapping, and this project that utilizes the DJI Phantom 4 RTK investigates new frontiers in this work.

By blending cutting-edge technology with the craftsmanship of our traditional artisans, we aimed to protect Nepal’s irreplaceable cultural identity while empowering the very people who have preserved it for generations.

In a landmark project, the Research and Innovation Unit (RIU) at Advanced College of Engineering and Management (ACEM), Nepal, joined hands with Baden-Wuerttemberg Cooperative State University Stuttgart Campus Horb, Germany to deploy drones for waste management at Mount Everest. 

Some people make entrepreneurship seem so natural that you start to question if it’s in their blood. For years, thought leaders, academics, and industry experts have debated whether great entrepreneurs have something special in their genes that gives them an advantage over other people.

Technologies are evolving faster than ever. Industry implementation at the same pace is difficult. Almost all of the innovations are connected to university research in one way or the other. However, the downside of the university approach is the research is mostly limited to paper. To bridge this gap, industry-academia collaboration is needed.

In the last two decades, emerging countries’ predominant strategy of expanding the size of the graduate pool by setting up new universities, without paying much attention to their quality, has resulted in a massive increase in the number of non-elite universities compared to the number of elite universities

In the context of the world that is today, many countries have exponential growth of the population. This growth has a direct impact on the living standard of people causing a rise in demand for food, water, and energy. The natural resources for food, water and energy are also being depleted day by day and if there is no monitorization in the growth rate of the population then in a few decades the resources will be completely wiped out.
