  • ADU 0914: How to Select the Best Drone and Implement Optimum Mapping Workflow in Construction
    Today's question is about drone mapping in construction and agriculture. Which is the best mapping application and drone to acquire and process data accurately in each of these fields?

    Our caller, John has come up with a two-part mapping question today. The first part of this question is about mapping applications. Why should you AVOID using an all-in-one mapping application? How do cloud-based applications compare to desktop solutions? We discuss the pros and cons of different applications such as Pix4D, MapsMadeEasy and SkyCatch.

    In the second part of this question, we discuss the best drones for mapping. Can you use a single drone for construction and agricultural mapping? Can you use the Yuneec H520 with its CGOET sensor for agricultural mapping? Or, is the Phantom 4 Pro your best bet?

    In this show, we go down the rabbit hole to discuss the entire mapping workflow. Tune in for some great information. Thanks for the question, John. Fly Safe!

    Today's show is about using drones for stockpile volumetric measurement. How can you convey the benefits of drone technology to your boss, and convince him to make a switch?

    Our caller, Phil is working for a company that uses airplane photography to take stockpile inventory. They are refusing to switch to drone technology - which is resulting in higher costs and poor accuracy. To answer Phil's question, we discuss the proper workflow for data acquisition and processing. Should you use GCPs to measure your stockpiles? And, should you opt for a drone with a global shutter?
