Hi @juecoree, your post reminded me of a time I met a team (of 2-3) drone surveyors who were tasked by Cebeco to survey the southern part of Cebu with a drone.
They stayed in the same bed and breakfast we were staying in and they were there for quite some time. I watched them work with their computers at the end of the day after their fieldwork.
The drone allows us to capture the fine details in the structure and showcase it at every possible angle.
Some of the sites may not have road networks and measuring topography becomes impossible, hiring a helicopter is too expensive so this is definitely a great alternative. The drone team got the job done and completed their mission.
