Aerotas Flight Operations

The Flight Operations Team Helps You Get the Most from Aerotas

When you use Aerotas to process your drone data, you immediately get access to our Flight Ops team. The sole responsibility of Flight Ops is to guide your mission planning and data collection process. This will ensure that you are successfully planning missions, setting UAS-specific ground control, and getting the most accurate results possible from your drone-collected data.

Flight Ops can help with:

• Airspace Authorizations

• DJI Geofencing

• Flight Pattern

• Altitude

The Basics:

Flight plan best practices

• Lawnmower flight path

• 75% / 75% overlap

• Nadir only, no obliques

Our Flight Ops team is comprised of pilots who have overseen thousands of projects. Aerotas always makes accuracy recommendations after the data has been processed. But, now you can get advice before you fly. Getting a second opinion on a mission can increase the likelihood of collecting good data with fewer fieldwork man-hours. Getting it right the first time also helps you avoid re-visits.
