We are open to the use of the latest developments in this area, which will increase the efficiency and effectiveness of our work, said Vice Minister Batyrbek Abdyshev.
The Ministry of Emergency Situations press service noted that company representatives demonstrated high-resolution satellite images and even offered training programs in remote sensing.
