Ranchi-Based Institute Uses Thermal Imaging to Map Affected Zone on Day Nine
Key Points:
- CMPDI Ranchi team led by Geology Manager Bhuvanesh Kumar Gupta arrives at site
- Drone camera measures temperature variations and collects population data in affected area
- Gas levels remain above normal after nine days, final report expected in 15-20 days
DHANBAD – The Central Mine Planning and Design Institute Limited team from Ranchi has initiated drone-based measurements of the Kenduadih gas leak zone on Thursday.
Geology Manager Bhuvanesh Kumar Gupta led the CMPDI team. The team deployed advanced drone technology for assessment. The gas leak incident has entered its ninth day.
Expert teams continue monitoring gas levels daily. However, the situation remains critical in the affected area. The CMPDI specialists arrived to conduct comprehensive measurements.
The drone captures thermal imagery of the region. According to Gupta, current winter temperatures range between 22-23 degrees Celsius. Moreover, any abnormal temperature spike indicates potential gas leakage. The equipment also records population density and housing data.
Gupta stated that measurements will be repeated. This ensures accurate assessment of the affected zone. On the other hand, the final report requires 15-20 days for completion.
The investigation employs scientific methods to identify leak sources. Meanwhile, authorities maintain strict monitoring protocols. In addition, safety measures remain in place across the area.
Gas concentration levels persist above normal thresholds. This remains a primary concern for officials. Furthermore, residents continue staying alert about potential hazards.
The CMPDI team collects multiple data points simultaneously. Temperature variations help pinpoint exact leak locations. Besides, housing density information aids evacuation planning. The drone covers the entire affected perimeter systematically.
Authorities coordinate with multiple agencies for comprehensive analysis. The Central Mine Planning and Design Institute brings specialized expertise. Previous gas incidents in Jamshedpur have prompted enhanced safety protocols. Officials emphasize the importance of thorough investigation.
Local residents await clarity on leak causes. The scientific approach ensures reliable findings. Past gas-related emergencies have highlighted the need for swift action. Continuous monitoring protects community safety throughout the assessment period.
