At Mahanadi Coalfields Limited (MCL), an internet-based platform dubbed 'VIHANGAM' that is coupled with a Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS) was inaugurated.

The system is made up of a Ground Control Station (GCS), an RPAS, a 40 Mbps internet lease line, and a VIHANGAM portal. It was originally trialed at two MCL opencast mines, Bhubaneswari and Lingaraj. The technology allows for real-time streaming of aerial footage of mining operations from mines to an online network, which authorized staff with just an ID and password may view via the VIHANGAM site.
