Large-scale adoption of drone technology in the corporate and public sectors may be slowed by operations that are too complex or high risk.  Streamlined operations and oversight are needed to grow enterprise drone programs and realize the transformative benefits of aerial intelligence. Learn from commercial drone operators, well versed in managing thousands of flights, how to employ software, train pilots, and implement risk mitigation procedures to make your program a success.
In this session, you’ll learn:
Consistency is king. Understanding the value of consistent pilot training and equipment decisions, and how to determine what is best for your specific application.
Make it automatic.  Manual processes mean things get missed. How to implement automatic processes such as uploads of flight logs and screen captures to ensure complete program oversight.  
Safety first. Give your pilots the tools to implement consistent safety procedures and risk assessments with every operation. Then set limits on things like altitude and speed and get notified of any potential issues.
One is better than two.  Understand the functions you need to manage your drone program, then identify the most efficient solution. Choosing multi-functional software and integrating into your existing workflow will simplify your operations and save costs.
