Drone Surveying Course
heliguy™ Drone Surveying Training Course
The heliguy™ Aerial Surveying Training Course provides comprehensive training to help professionals fully utilise drones for surveying.
This in-depth modular course focuses on the fundamentals and principles of drone mapping and land surveying, with a focus on DJI drone surveying solutions.
Designed to benefit end-to-end surveying workflows, it covers flight planning, data capture, data processing, and data deliverables - for photogrammetry and LiDAR.
The course - delivered over a period of up to five days - comprises theory, practical and scenario-based training, delivered in the classroom and in the field.
Learn from the in-house heliguy™ surveying team, which has delivered surveying training to the likes of Balfour Beatty VINCI for deploying drones on the HS2 development, and created a DJI L1 LiDAR course which was subsequently purchased by DJI for global rollout.
