@@iscariom to become licensed you need a BS. But to be a survey crew chief, CAD tech, project manager, etc. you don’t need a degree. You could get on a company as an “Iman” (basically an assistant to the crew chief) and learn from the ground up. Most surveyors don’t have degrees. Experience is king. I’m going to school part time now though. Great career.
Hi Adam, I am sharing your video with 37 elementary schools students; your information is informative and quick to the point. Afterwards, they will take the TRUST certificate with Pilot Institute (Greg) and continue learning to fly recreational until they reach the proper age to move forward with a 107. Dronist!
That's great to hear, we really appreciate the support! If you want, we (UAV Coach) are also an FAA-approved Test Administrator of TRUST. You can go through and get your certificate here: uavcoach.com/faa-recreational-drone-training/
Thank you and yes! We offer an online drone mapping course and 2-day live drone mapping workshops. Check out the online course here: uavcoach.com/online-drone-mapping-course/ And the live workshops here: uavcoach.com/in-person-drone-mapping-course/
Im doing cert 3 in uav at tae her in au. I want to eventually start a plant and garden supply delivery. And i will work with rangers to survey and find wild life and flora and ect. How would i go about getting a good drone and maybe funding if with go fund me because im on a disability pension and can't afford one. Also the sensors sound great for monitoring Forrest here. Wpuld there be a way i could integrate an ai i trained into a drone for mapping and finding wildlife. Do some drones habe computer's or could i also build an Arduino with tiny linux to run ot all.

Hey! Your Drone Mapping link on the top right of the screen doesn't go to your Drone Mapping video, it just scrolls down to reference the same chapter of the video where you mention it.
Thanks for the callout - I just checked it and it looks like the links are all the way at the bottom of the description (right underneath the chapters). See if you can find them there!
AI is not a threat to drone pilots in the short term as the FAA will push to keep drones under human control for the foreseeable future. The FAA moves very, very slowly on all regulation changes. The regs currently mandate a human operator, and that will not change any time soon.
just like driving cars dependent on the person since male brain is more fit for complex flying and adapting to environment but its not that hard if you're just commercial pilot
The reason AI wont become a replacement for drone pilots in the next 5+ years.. is cost. Period. The cost to run AI to do things is expensive. As AI use scales (e.g. more and more users, devices, etc using it) that cost is being paid by someone, somewhere. It's amazing to me for example that we can freely use Google Gemini and ChatGPT 3.5/4.. the cost to run those queries * millions of people doing so every day has got to be in the 10s or 100s of millions.. for our free use. The GPUs, power consumption, cooling.. all of that is expensive. I am sure as computers get even faster/smaller, we'll see more and more AI able to run on phones and laptops (as software apps), but I still think that is years if not decade+ away before not needing the cloud to do AI is a thing. Even so, the vast amounts of data AI relies on wont be on local devices so there is still a crap ton of dependence on cloud based AI models, processing, etc. HOWEVER.. I will add that AI to do piloting isn't the same as general AI like ChatGPT. It clearly doesn't need anywhere near the processing power and data. But when you compare car auto pilots.. they use multiple computers, lots of memory, etc.. to "see" and process that info. So I still think drones that can fly simply by saying "Hey.. give me 25 shots of different heights and angles of this house, then do a video with an orbit and another with an orbit as you pull away, then some close ups in the video of the pool, the door, the yard.." is a long ways off.. so at least to me, the next 10 or so years drone pilots will be a growing industry until enough AI model/data is amassed and processed for small consumer grade (e.g. mini 4 pro, Air 3, etc) are able to tap into that.
oh wow we only need a LOT of money for this. it would be VERY useful for people who CANT afford any of this to navigate away from the video. You should mention a financial disclaimer up front in the video so we dont waste our time
Get a legit certification from a technical college and apply to some private military contractors. Only plausible if you have 4+ years of honorable military service. But they would provide you everything for the job if you get it
Become a land surveyor. We are adopting the technology like crazy on top of everything else we are already doing.
Great input!
May The Almighty Continue To Bless You!!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Would love to. Doesn't it require a BA?

How long does it take to become a land surveyer and is there an online course I can take this? Thanks buddy!

Just subscribed. Great video thank you!
That's great to hear! Glad you found it helpful - any other videos/tutorials you want to see?
Great video, does your company offer drone mapping, photogrammetry, thermography certs or courses?

I see opportunities also emerging in the field of entertainment for the drone industry, in designing and executing drone light shows for masses.
Yes, that almost made the list! The entertainment side for drones is popping off, especially with drone light shows!
Thank you for this awesome career input.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Great video and informative ty
Thanks for the up-Date
I have been literally researching this all for the same reasons but in Canada.

This video hit the spot
That's great to hear!
The young man who created this video, can we chat about dones and investment opportunities in real estate, stock ,etc?
Welp, I’m sold. I’m going to buy a drone, start practicing my skills and become a drone pilot. Or at least as a side gig.

Interesting thoughts!
Also,
I would like to mention this videos thumb nail is a refinery and you never mentioned energy for drones, once. 😂
Is drone career option is good for girls
just like driving cars dependent on the person since male brain is more fit for complex flying and adapting to environment but its not that hard if you're just commercial pilot
Yeah, you forgot one dangerous but profitable drone pilot job
Private military contractors? Found one paying 2k a day in a combat zone

Today's best Commercial drones still fly themselves into the ground and wreck regulatory. They suck. Especially DJI!

@@mr_agave free speech gives me that right. Regardless of your feelings
Dude you can get into high quality drone work for under $1,000 investment…

When you open up with a sales pitch that automatically a thumbs down!
