The basic concepts of drones, flight safety measures and photogrammetry workflows will start from scratch, so that at the end of the course participants will have the knowledge necessary to plan and execute professional RPAS flights and derive their own products as one of the main inputs into geomatics.
The training will last for 30 hours of theoretical and practical work divided into four face-to-face modules, with the option to take it in default mode.
