Drones and GIS – a Powerful Combination

Drones are fast changing the information landscape with the possibility of being the most highly disruptive technology since the cell phone.  They are true robots, able to be tasked by their human masters for all types of applications that would otherwise be too difficult or expensive to accomplish any other way.  But whether they are used to find crab grass on golf courses, create roof damage reports for insurance companies, or find lost campers in the woods, the one thing that binds all drone applications together is geography.  Working in the spatial domain is what they do, both navigating and collecting information with photos and video; essentially capturing our world at both the macro and micro level. 

Join us to discover how you can use Esri’s ArcGIS platform to make the best use of drones and the imagery they collect. ArcGIS technology combines the power of the drone with the power of GIS to transform remotely sensed content into actionable information.
