Drone Photogrammetry for SEZ Land Enablement and Digital Twin Mapping
Saudi Arabia’s industrial strategy has pivoted away from speculative, broad-acre “Economic Cities” toward targeted, supply-chain-driven development. Rather than constructing massive greenfield cities expecting tenants to follow, national planning now prioritizes disciplined regionalization, sector-specific industrial clusters, and targeted Special Economic Zones (SEZs). Saudi Arabia SEZ Economic Footprint: – KAEC SEZ: 60 km² Footprint (Advanced Manufacturing & […]
