What are Some Drone Surveying and Mapping Jobs that Do Not Need a Licensed Surveyor to Sign Off on Them?

Today's show is about drone surveying and mapping.

Austin from North Carolina, a regular ADU listener, listened to our show, "Can Drone Pilots Create Drone Maps Without Being a Surveyor? ". In this show, we discussed how licensed surveyors and state surveying boards are harassing drone pilots taking up drone surveying jobs. In his question today, Austin is wondering whether all drone surveying jobs require a licensed surveyor to sign off on them.

Drone surveying and mapping have many different applications, and it is essential to segment these applications into two distinct categories. While some applications require a drone pilot to team up with a licensed surveyor, there are many applications for which you do not need a licensed surveyor at all.

In this show, you will learn about the different drone uses like 3D reconstruction, NDVI mapping, and volumetric measurements that do not require a surveying license. Further, we also discuss how different states have different drone laws when it comes to drone surveying and mapping. Which are some of the best and worst states for drone surveying and mapping? Tune in to find out. Thanks for the great question, Austin. Fly Safe!
