Drone & Aerial Photography

Drones are more popular and more people use drone in their trip and life.

I am wondering how many people here use a drone? I found some related topics. However, it seems the topic owners have not used a drone.

Drone can provide another view of google map

A drone can also make a 3D pictures quickly.

Drone footage is amazing. But it is beyond my ability. 

Can anyone share your aerial photography or footage? How to improve the map with drones?

Re: Drone & Aerial Photography

There was another thread, at least, for Drone Photography.

I'd love to, but i'm scared about law and regulation in Italy; it's not easy to understand what you can and what you can't do as a professional.

I'm actually subcontracting to Drone professional services when i need.

Thanks  for your feedback.

I know there are some thread for drone photography. But it seems these threads are like chatting. 

In addition to drone pictures/footage sharing. NFZ is another topic I'm interested in. Integrated global NFZ is a challenge. But it is also the information that I hope  google maps can provide in the near future.

Although DJI will provide more information about NFZ, but they only provide airport NFZ and the NFZ is a circle.

I hope google maps can provide map layer like this example https://www.flyerlee.com/rcrmap.php

This is the information about NFL in Italy but I don't know the information is correct or not.

Hi @Sullivan just noticed DJI launched Spark! This is a great news, as this is a 300 g drone, that will allow many activities without need of Flight authority regulation and license!

Maybe this could be the right drone for me!

Hi, @LucioV

No matter how weight of the drone. NFZ is applied to all drones even  kites.

Under FAA regulation, you don't need to register if your drone is under 250g. Flying Drones over 25 KG need a license.

So...nothing different for Spark

I didn't mean to work in NFZ at all 😉

But i'm sure that in crowdy areas there will be more flexibiliy on 300 g drones.

In Italy ENAC is in charge of regulation, and they are changin rules every day....

Hi @Sullivan nice to hear that you also working with drones. Thanks for sharing your beautiful photos and videos. 

Do you know there is a post already existing "Earth from a bird's eye" I have posted some drone images. Hope you will like my 3D model too.

@IlankovanT Thanks a lot

What's your 3D software? I use altizure. It is great but just free for limited quota.
