Among the hats I wear at work, one is as our drone pilot. For the past year I've flown our campus numerous times while maintaining the highest of safety standards. My flights usually consist of one of three objectives. 1. Visualizing rate of change during construction in an area (usually from week to week). 2. Inventory assessment (flying an area, generating a map, then calculating volume/mass on any interested areas). 3. Inspection (flying an area/building to look at it's roof, for example)
