Can AI change the future of mapping? How is it being used currently and what capabilities can AI bring?

Today's episode is brought to you by Drone U In-person Flight mastery classes. If you're looking to enhance your flight skills (and who among us doesn't need to enhance our flight skills), we are hosting a day of flight training through our Flight Mastery Course in NY on September 8. Our Flight Mastery course is a training based on our obstacle course built from 12 exercises to build confidence in student's ability to fly and make educated decisions in flight. The primary goal of the class is to teach students the strategies and techniques we've learned over the past several years that will enable students to fly with confidence and in a way that mitigates risk while pushing themselves to be the best pilot possible. Join us today !!

On today's show we discuss about AI in the drone industry and how AI can influence capabilities such as drone mapping, photogrammetry and 3d modeling.

Our question for today is from Gabe "The Hawaiian" Hanohano who would like to know more about AI in the drone industry and its capabilities to generate maps and how it can restructure the ways 2D and 3D maps are created. Thanks for the question Gabe. Always happy to hear from you. In our response we start our discussion highlight the use of AI in animation and how tools such as LumaLabs use AI to create unique drone videos. We delve into new AI tools that are currently in use in the drone market and how the industry is currently generating 3D models and the capabilities that AI can bring in the future. We also discuss the future capabilities and other ways that can possibly structure how the drone industry operates and how models and photogrammetry can be influenced while also being cautious of deliverable quality. Lastly we discuss how specific domains in the industry such as surveying, animation are set to be influenced by AI and how you can learn these to be at the forefront of the change.

Tune in today to listen to the detail and learn more about how AI is influencing the drone industry and what lies ahead!!
