Drones Fighting Desertification
VIDEO: Drones vs. desertification in al-Hasa
Working with the National Center for Vegetation Cover and Combating Desertification, Aramco uses unmanned aerial vehicles to protect the al-Hasa oases.
Through Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies and customized drones, we plant native trees in Al-Hasa National Park as part of our efforts to reduce desertification.
We collaborate with the national Center for Vegetation Cover and Combating Desertification to test drones in planting 100,000 native tree seed balls in the sandy soils of al-Hasa.
The project aims to reduce the effects of desertification in one of the world’s largest desert oases.
