Career Advantage
Companies like AutoDesk –AutoCad software makers familiar to architects and builders–have embraced drone technology, investing heavily in drones to seize new opportunities. Thousands of drone technology companies are developing mapping and photogrammetry tools for various applications; and one field that may be among the first to take off with the commercial drone industry.
For example, recent use of drones to survey wildlife has allowed researchers to use photogrammetry to assess whale health; mapping has helped rescue and rebuild efforts after earthquakes and other disasters in many undeveloped countries. The future mapping and photogrammetry applications can only extend with drones that have been unachievable–or at least expensive and difficult to reach –using traditional means.
