Seminar Title
Drones in Disaster Recovery - Not All Drones, and Pilots, Are Created Equal.
Seminar Description
When it comes to disaster recovery and rebuilding operations there is no longer a question of whether you should be employing aerial drones. It is almost impossible to fully cover the benefits they bring at every stage of operations. However, as with many things you need to ensure you are applying the right tool for the job, and in this case, the right technician as well. Drones in disaster recovery require a special skill set and advanced training that most operators simply don't have. In this discussion we will cover what you should look for and the skills a qualified drone team should have as well as some of the advanced capabilities beyond simply taking photos.
