Aerial photography in the UK has tight regulations as to where a drone is able to fly. [48] Aerial Photography on Light aircraft under 20 kg (44 lb). Basic Rules for non commercial flying Of a SUA (Small Unmanned Aircraft). Article 241 Endangering safety of any person or property.
OpenDroneMap is an open source photogrammetry toolkit to process aerial imagery (usually from a drone) into maps and 3D models. [3] [4] [5] The software is hosted and distributed freely on GitHub. [6] OpenDroneMap has been integrated within American Red Cross's in-field Portable OpenStreetMap system. [7]
Aerial survey is a method of collecting geomatics or other imagery data using airplanes, helicopters, UAVs, balloons, or other aerial methods. Typical data collected includes aerial photography , Lidar , remote sensing (using various visible and invisible bands of the electromagnetic spectrum , such as infrared , gamma , or ultraviolet ) and ...
An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), or unmanned aircraft system (UAS), commonly known as a drone, is an aircraft with no human pilot, crew, or passengers onboard. UAVs were originally developed through the twentieth century for military missions too "dull, dirty or dangerous" [ 1 ] for humans, and by the twenty-first, they had become essential ...
Aerial video is an emerging form of data acquisition for scene understanding and object tracking. The video is captured by low flying aerial platforms that integrate Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and automated image processing to improve the accuracy and cost-effectiveness of data collection and reduction.
In 2021, the FAA published and put into effect Remote ID regulations, officially requiring all drones above 250g in mass and all drones flown for commercial purposes to have a digital license plate which, in real time, publicly transmits the location of both the drone and the operator (in most cases).

Overlapping of aerial photos means that around 60% of the covered area of every aerial image overlays that of the one before it. [2] Every object along the flying path can be observed twice at a minimum. [2] The purpose of overlapping the aerial photography is to generate the 3D topography or relief when using a stereoscope for interpretation. [2]
The drone is a quadcopter with foldable arms for increased portability. [2] The original Mavic Pro is equipped with the same 12- megapixel camera as the Phantom 4 , which is capable of capturing 4K video at 24 frames per second (FPS) or 1080p video at 96 FPS, and has the same bitrate as the Phantom at 60 Mbit/s.
