More and more Drone operators find themselves wanting to expand their knowledge and level of expertise with Drones. If your serious about getting into Drone Mapping, Steel City Drones has the Definitive Drone Mapping class that will absolutely take you to the next level. Steel City Drone’s Definitive Drone Mapping Master Class is a wealth of knowledge with more than 100 customized tutorial videos that includes more than 18 hours of content. We review the latest mapping technology available, as well as flight planning software, Terrain following, thermal Mapping, accident reconstruction, Façade inspections, and Multispectral applications. Our Drone Mapping course took more than 8 months to create because we wanted to put something out there like nothing else. So we did that and drilled down one step at a time to get to very advanced techniques. Steel City Drone’s Definitive Drone Mapping Master class has instructional videos for Pix4D Mapper, DJI Terra, Drone Deploy, UGCS, Maps Made Easy, Web ODM, EMLID Studio, and QGIS. We start out our program assuming you know nothing about Drone mapping and we drill down one step at a time very carefully, so that its very easy to follow and digest the material. And we get to the point that we are doing very advanced techniques and practice exercises and you’re going to be amazed at what you can do……….. Dave: With our course we have more than 13 practice exercises that you will be able to follow through with us. And most of those exercises, we include the dataset for you so you don’t even have to have a drone or an expensive drone to be able to follow us thru with the workflows necessary for very good project reconstructions. Steel City Drones Definitive Drone Mapping Master class includes a professional study guide, and quizzes after each Chapter. After passing the master exam, you will receive a Certificate of completion that verifies you have the knowledge and skills to start Drone Mapping at a professional level. There are a lot of people on tight budgets that can’t afford a drone like this, or they want to hold off making an investment, till they know more about drone mapping and how it works. So we devoted an entire chapter in our online course to just that. So we walk you through how to create a drone mapping project using a DJI Mini and with software that’s less than $100. We’ll walk you through the entire process from start to finish and show you how to create the most popular outputs out there that you can use. Creating complex 3D models is a technique that many drone pilots struggle with and we show you all the secrets to creating amazing and consistent models that won’t fail you. Our Mapping course includes multiple exercises that teaches how to create the best possible 3D model. The biggest misconception about drone mapping is the validation process so many people out there think that all they need to do is hit a button, the drone goes up and collects the data, we bring all that data into the software processing, and then we hit export, and that’s all we need to do. There is so much more to it, that we have to cover in this course so that you understand what we need to do. Because we can have the most expensive drone on the market, the best possible equipment that you can buy, really good solid workflow processes, but it we don’t validate our data independently, our collected data is completely worthless. Steel City Drone’s Definitive Drone Mapping Master class also includes tutorial videos on the Principles of Photography that will teach you the primary skills needed to manually adjust your pictures live in the air to prevent reshooting a project that costs time and money. RTK Technology is one of the misunderstood parts of drone mapping. When People want to buy a drone that has RTK on it, most people think all these need to do is bolt an RTK module on the top of it and they are all set. And it goes way beyond that, so we drill down one step at a time and explain how RTK and especially NTRIP in relationship to commercial drone mapping. One of the biggest questions we get when people want to start drone mapping is in regard to base stations, tons of different questions. So we break this down very comprehensively as to the difference between the different base stations out there and we have a full set of tutorial videos on the Emlid Reach Receivers. And we go over everything you need from the basic setups to using them in all of our practice exercises. If you struggle with creating consistent and quality 2D orthomosaics on a regular basis, we breakdown the most common type of errors that pilots make in their flight planning so that you can get quality and repeatable results every time.
