Dubai deploys drone fleet to catch people littering

Dubai has gained a reputation as both a center for wealth and excess as well as a city where even relatively minor illegal acts can have major consequences. Now one component of the city's enforcement efforts will be backed by the latest technology in remote-controlled technology: drones. The Dubai Municipality's Waste Management Department plans to deploy an entire fleet of drones to police the city's litterers. In line with the development towards excellence and the government pursuit for smart services in providing services to the community and keeping up with what is followed in major international cities, The Waste Management Department in Dubai Municipality launched the drone to monitor sites that are supervised by waste landfills in Al Qusais, Jebel Ali and Warsan as well as in investment sites.
