Aerial Mapping & Surveying

Course Description

This course is the best move for those who seek to incorporate Drones/RPAS/UAV’s for Mapping and Surveying into their business.

Boasting an impressive productivity boost, the latest technology and software are incorporated into this innovative workflow, this course will get you from the theory on photogrammetry, how sensors work to provide vital data for post processing, moving on to how acquiring data sets through automated missions on different RPA platforms, and post processing software to produce 2D and 3D deliverables.

The breakdown:

Theory
Practical- 2Hrs of flight training (Data acquisition and processing)

Why this Specialisation?

This specialization is the Industry’s first & only program to equip you with all all the knowledge and skills to incorporate a consistent workflow into the surveying/mapping process.

After completion of this course you can:
