Potential of UAVs
Drones as a data source
DanubeHack 2.0, Bratislava, SK. 2016
UAV’s can be scary…but they don’t have to be.
• 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
Rapid data
• Most drones can collect from 1m2 to 100s ha of information at a
time.
• 50cm – 5m resolution or a HD video.
• Image can be overlaid with vector or rastor data.
• Analysis can be done in the field.
• Outputs are real, up-to-date for detail or informed decisions.
Drone Racing: example
Requirements:
• Space! Indoor or outdoor space (open or
sports fields, warehouses, abandoned lots
etc)
• Accessibility (how far from city or transport)
• Permission to fly a drone. (not close to
airports or aerodromes etc)
• Maybe a good bar for a beer afterwards…
Drone Racing: example
Data:
• Drone imagery of locations with
other aerial images (satellite)
• Cadastre data, landuse data or town
planning maps
• Locations of all airports and
airfields.
• Access app or info on best bars in a
city.
Drone Racing: example
Output:
• landuse map highlighting all
suitable areas for drone racing.
• Interactive app – area/city/country
scale
• Huge, thirsty audience and demand
in drone industry.
