This document discusses unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and their value. It provides an agenda for a presentation on UAS that includes discussions of standards and certifications, how UAS can be used to observe different geographies, the value proposition of UAS, sectors that UAS can serve such as government, infrastructure, and energy, and challenges around managing image assets from UAS. The presentation aims to convey that UAS provide emancipating opportunities to understand place from new perspectives.
