New regulations for commercial small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS or “drones”) will take effect in the United States on August 27, 2016. These new rules, referred to as Part 107, contain a real gem that not many folks are discussing. In fact, I think it may be the most important rule of the entire Part 107. Read more...

Using drone (sUAS) collected photogrammetry which are then turned into a point cloud for assessment in LP360 Ignacio Zapico Alonso (Departamento de Geodinámica, UCM, e Instituto de Geociencias, CSIC-UCM), Anonio Molina Jurado (Universidad de Alcalá) and David Gutiérrez Torres (DGDrone) discuss Topographic monitoring at the restoration of the Somolinos quarry. Read more...

In the LIDAR industry the generally accepted definition for Nominal Pulse Spacing (NPS) is the one detailed in the USGS base LIDAR Specification. That is the spacing between points in the collection when in reference to single instrument, single swath, first return only LIDAR point data. Read more...
