Aerial surveys span 56 years covering 771,000 km²
The Saudi Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs and Housing has revealed that 47 aerial survey projects have been carried out since 1970, contributing to the creation of a geospatial database covering more than 771,000 square kilometers over 56 years. These projects have supported urban planning by providing both historical and modern aerial imagery, with their utilization evolving from analog photography to high-resolution digital images. This transition has enhanced the accuracy of studies and maps and improved the effectiveness of urban development management. Additionally, the ministry has obtained ISO 9001:2008 certification to reaffirm its commitment to quality standards. Currently, ongoing efforts are underway to develop the aerial imagery system, topographic maps, and property maps, with the aim of improving development efficiency and raising the quality of life.
