What are the best drones for surveying?

 WingtraOne mapping drone Large surveying areas, difficult or steep terrain, great altitude differences, harsh climate or the absence of flat surfaces required for take-off and landing: the WingtraOne mapping drone can overcome all these challenges of surveying mid- and large-scale projects. Surveyor with WingtraOne drone Remove and land vertically (VTOL) Eliminate dangerous belly landings, hand launches and catapults. Unlike other fixed-wing drones, the WingtraOne will take off and lands smoothly in confined areas, on gravel, between tree stands or in mountainous areas. 42 Megapixels / 0.7 cm/px (0.3 in/px) GSD With its full-frame 42 MP Sony camera, the WingtraOne can fly at high altitudes while still providing low GSD images. This guarantees that large areas can be surveyed faster with high accuracy. Informative post yields better orthomosaic map reconstruction. Right down to 1 cm (0.4 in) absolute accuracy Utilizing the PPK option, you'll be able to reach down to 1 cm (0.4 in) absolute accuracy, previously only feasible with ground-based survey equipment. This involves optimal conditions, flight above hard surfaces and the use of well-marked, highly-visible, manually-measured checkpoints and a well-established based station. Other drones for surveying and mapping Fixed-wing vs quadcopter for mining survey In the end, the best drone for the land surveying project depends upon many factors, including the size of the survey site, desired output quality, and your budget and preferences.
