Conducting topographic surveying using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) requires a strategic approach that goes beyond the simplistic notion of deploying a drone to capture images and subsequently processing them in any photogrammetry application. The success of topographic mapping and surveying hinges not only on deploying the right UAV and sensing technologies but also on possessing a comprehensive understanding of their effective utilization. Without this informed knowledge, there is a risk of generating subpar and inaccurate geospatial datasets, irrespective of the photogrammetry software employed.

The burgeoning sector within the drone industry, presenting significant growth opportunities, is one in which specialisation can lead to the ability to command elevated rates for your expertise. This course caters to both individual commercial drone operators and corporate entities engaged in drone operations, providing a comprehensive curriculum for up-skilling.
