Today’s episode is brought to you by our PROPS program. Props is Drone U’s exclusive offering that gives organizations the ability to effectively and efficiently deploy UAV training to their pilots. PROPS allows drone program leaders to assign appropriate courses based on the needs and duration of their program. And perhaps more importantly, program leaders can monitor each pilot’s progress from one convenient platform. Our PROPS program features specialized courses in a variety of domains, including mapping, public safety, and our exclusive Don’t Crash course.
Today's show is about providing services to surveyors. Today's question is Jamie wants to know if it's worth it to provide drone services to surveyors, or if it's better to provide services directly in the field. Jamie, thanks for the question.
We answer Jamie’s question by talking about the complexities involved in providing services to surveyors and why we believe providing services to surveyors is not worth it. We discuss the challenges of accuracy, GCP usage, and the barriers to turning drone processes into valuable work for surveyors. We also discuss issues such as working for surveyors and the services that pilots with surveying experience can provide.
