Top 10 Things at Esri UC & ArcGIS Pro - Pee Dee User Group - August MeetingJim Tochterman
The document outlines the top 10 things discussed at the Esri UC 2015 conference, including embracing web GIS, smart mapping, 3D visualization, big data tools, new Collector apps, AppStudio for ArcGIS, ArcGIS Earth, drone support, statistical package support in ArcGIS, and vector tile support. It also discusses ArcGIS Pro as the next generation of ArcGIS Desktop, featuring a 64-bit architecture, faster geoprocessing, project-based interface, and ability to evolve incrementally alongside the ArcGIS platform.
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, provide a low-cost platform for aerial photography, mapping, and remote sensing applications. They can carry various sensor payloads and be used for infrastructure inspection, wildlife monitoring, search and rescue operations, and more. Regulations currently require certification to operate drones commercially, but their utility is driving efforts to expand approved uses. This document discusses various drone types, payloads, examples of applications, and the training and equipment required.
Local Government Showcase Drones for the planningssusera9462d1
UAVs, or drones, are unmanned aerial vehicles that can be programmed to autonomously capture aerial imagery. Modern UAVs take overlapping photos at regular intervals during flight. These photos are then processed using software and GCPs to create high-resolution orthomosaics and elevation models. UAVs are increasingly being used for applications like property assessment, disaster response, and construction volume calculations due to their ability to efficiently collect accurate geospatial data. Regulations require all commercial UAV pilots to be licensed through the FAA.
This document discusses optimizing UAV systems for rapidly surveying and reconstructing large cultural heritage sites through 3D modeling. It proposes using a system of fixed-wing, foldable, and multi-rotor drones carrying high-resolution cameras. Images would be transmitted via LTE to a base station and cloud for real-time processing into orthophotos and 3D point clouds using structure from motion. The goal is efficient, high-resolution documentation of extensive heritage areas.
This document summarizes the design and testing of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) built by students to survey farmland by taking aerial images and recording GPS coordinates. The students followed an engineering design process, beginning with brainstorming how to survey large areas of rough terrain. They researched UAV types and flight principles and designed a flying wing platform suited for autonomous flight, first-person viewing, and ease of use. A quality function deployment analysis supported this design. The UAV was constructed of expanded polypropylene foam and tested through several flights. High definition video and images captured during test flights over a banana crop provided a valuable aerial view for monitoring the farm.
UAVs and FME: Powering Your Drone and Its Data with FMESafe Software
This presentation will look at some typical UAV support workflows where FME can help both with flight planning and post processing. Examples include examining flight restrictions and obstacles to determine where it is safe to fly. For post processing, FME's tools for managing imagery will be examined, including georeferencing and mosaicking. The results from local test flights on a low-cost UAV platform will be reviewed. We will wrap with a summary of some customer applications where FME has been used to support UAV operations, and some of the challenges and opportunities that this rapidly growing industry presents in the near future.

Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) 3D Product Comparisons to Airborne LiDARMerrick & Company
Technical comparison of 3D UAS imaging products to airborne LiDAR data products. Presented by Matt Bethel, Director of Technology for Geospatial Solutions at Merrick & Company (www.merrick.com) on February 18, 2014 in Denver, Colorado. International LiDAR Mapping Forum (ILMF) - http://www.lidarmap.org/international
Kites are useful for aerial photography because they are inexpensive, stable in windy conditions, and do not scare people like drones. Kite aerial photography involves using kites to lift lightweight cameras into the air to take photos from above, and then processing and stitching the photos together using software. Different types of kites, cameras, housings, and accessories can be used for various applications such as regular photography or capturing infrared images.
Drew Silcock from the University of Bristol presented on using aerial photogrammetry for volcanology applications. Photogrammetry uses structure from motion and parallax from overlapping photos taken from different positions to reconstruct 3D models without needing exact camera positions. Silcock discussed taking photos using drones and cameras, processing photos in Agisoft Photoscan to generate point clouds and models, and using Mission Planner and ArduPilot Mega autopilots to control drone flights and geotag photos. Applications included studying lava flows, and results showed models and maps generated for test sites. Future work includes improving drone photo triggering and adding ground control points for improved accuracy.
Facing the impossible and making it posssibleBrad Cotton
The document discusses the impressive engineering feats required for NASA and ESA space missions to land on a comet and flyby Pluto. It summarizes that the spacecraft had to reach escape velocity from Earth in just minutes using rocket boosters and gravitational slingshots from planets to reach speeds over 32,500 mph. It took the Pluto mission 9.5 years to travel billions of miles, and missing the launch date by even one day would have caused it to miss Pluto entirely. The document argues these successful, complex missions demonstrate principles from Lean Six Sigma such as process mapping, risk analysis, and optimization that could be applied to other domains.

Drone flight planning - Principles and PracticesDany Laksono
This document discusses principles of drone flight planning. It explains that flight planning is necessary to ensure drones capture images in the right places and fly safely, especially over large areas. Key aspects of flight planning include the area of interest, desired accuracy, flight height and path, ground control points, image overlap, and drone type. Modern software can automate flight planning by designing paths based on user inputs and calculating flight times and images. Such software can also import map data and avoid obstacles. Overall, proper flight planning is important for safety and obtaining high quality results from drone missions.
Drone photography was used to map 116 acres of land in Manipur, India for development of Manipur Technical University. Over 4000 aerial images were taken with a DJI Phantom 4 drone and stitched together to create a high resolution digital elevation model and orthophoto of the site. This accurate 3D model and aerial imagery allowed planners to easily demarcate the plot boundaries, calculate elevations, and estimate development costs. The drone survey was much faster and more precise than relying on outdated paper maps and low resolution satellite imagery.
Commercial Drone Best Practices: How to Incorporate Data and Job SpecsColin Snow
Drones are an exciting platform that is now emerging as a competitive technology in a number of professional surveying data collection scenarios - including mobile and airborne LiDAR. This presentation presents an overview of what to consider when adding a remotely piloted airborne photogrammetry or laser scanning system to your practice.
There are many reasons why firms need to model the exterior contour of existing aircraft OMLs (Outer Mold Lines). Most aircraft flying today were not designed in a modern 3D CAD program. Even with a current 3D digital design, the actual as-built contour deviates from the intended shape, at least at some level.
Direct Dimensions has used a wide variety of 3D measurement equipment and software for nearly 15 years to accurately capture and model these shapes for many different applications and purposes. This presentation will focus on the evolution of 3D scanning equipment and software through many examples with emphasis on practical application, costs, schedules, deliverables, etc.
Having real world customers that demand higher quality and lower price over time for this application, Direct Dimensions has continually searched for the best tools and methods for performing these projects. This experience and perspective will be freely shared with the audience in order to develop an appreciation for the selection of such tools for these projects.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Deliberately picked Inspire for VLOS
DroneDeploy.com flight plan
Closely monitor flight at low-battery-initiated “Return Home”
Inefficient leg resumption – restarts leg
RF Interference
Aborted several legs, possibly due to other sUAS in class
MapsMadeEasy.com
During “Return Home” manual photography cancels “Return Home”
Efficient leg resumption
Each battery change requires “reloading” the flight; glitches will occur
Taking command = returning to reprogram flight
Human Factors = 80% of your problem
Law Enforcement pre-planning pays off
People don’t really talk to the guy in a hardhat and safety vest
Expect adults around children to ACT like children…
Knuckleheads will drive through your cones and “Home”
25. Mission
