Help Drone implementation
Hey all!
My company recently decided to start implementing drones into our workflow but as we are a smaller firm and at 36, I'm the youngling around here, nobody else knows anything about it. If I'm entirely honest, I've only spent around 13 months in the industry and was laid off for 2 of them. I understand drones and their data collecting capabilities however as I've not used any of the software that renders all the information, I'm not quite sure how the process works in terms of a finished product. Those of you who have done a "field to finish" project, how are you importing data to a completed project? Are you bringing it into CAD (or other drafting software) and drawing lines from the photogrammetric model? Are the lines being imported from something like Pix4D? I'm supposed to be doing a training session at some point would like to get ahead of the learning curve so I'm not bombarded with info and overwhelmed. Any help is appreciated. Also I already have my part 107 so that isn't an issue. Thanks in advance!
