Excellent source of rapid, quality and high res information
Base for creating further data and information
Environmental, emergency, town planning, financial, survey or racing applications

3. Rapid data
Most drones can collect from 1m2 to 100s ha of information at a time.
50cm – 5m resolution or a HD video.
