Aerial Mapping Using Drone Photography Plantation FL Pilots Offer Has Many Advantages

By Donna Beley


It wasn't too many years ago that when you mention drones, it almost always pertained to military or law enforcement uses. In the past few years, however, applications for drone technology have not only expanded in fields but within those fields as well. Interestingly, these civilian applications have expanded exponentially. In particular is the field of aerial mapping by drones as opposed to mapping by ground-based survey tools.

Drones have many advantages. They are not expensive or difficult to operate. They can cover a lot of ground in a short period of time. Using drones, as opposed to ground GPS, is a sensible and efficient solution.

Traversing difficult terrain might be dangerous for ground surveying crews. Getting photos using a manned aircraft has its problems, and data collected from satellites may not be as detailed as required. Drones are the safest and fastest alternative.

Not everyone is on board with this latest technology however. There are those who still believe only human ground crews can adequately read markers and coordinates. The truth is that drones are very good at reading different types of control points. They are capable of receiving data in flight and can take color and infrared pictures.

Drones can take pictures that allow surveyors to draw complicated metes and bounds surveys for property owners. Owners use the surveys to market land to developers for residential and commercial purposes. Architects use the surveys along with the photos to decide where and how to build structures. Boundary lines are clearer from the air, making perimeter surveys fast and easy.

Mapping property has never been easier with the use of drones. Law enforcement and the military will continue to use them. Over time, drones will probably become the technology of choice for wise developers and commercial entrepreneurs.
