In this episode, we break down what geodesy is and why it matters for professional drone mapping. If you're doing any kind of serious drone mapping work - especially with surveyors or engineers - this is something you need to understand.
Think drone mapping is just about taking pictures from above? Think again! Learn why being off by just a few feet in your measurements could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars on big projects, and how understanding geodesy helps you avoid these costly mistakes.
Key topics covered:
- What geodesy really means for drone pilots
- Why it matters for construction and engineering projects
- Real examples of how measurement errors can impact projects
- Basic concepts you need to know for professional mapping
