DRONE - Introduction to Mapping

• 2D Mapping Basics – Fly a path, capture photos, and create a  stitched map for accurate, up-to-date scene overviews.  
• Operational Uses – Event planning, search & rescue, warrant  service, and tactical operations  
• 3D Modeling – Build a “digital twin” of a scene or structure for   immersive analysis.   
• Measurements with Precision – Capture roadway widths, skid   marks, distances, and scene details down to the centimeter. 
• Applications Across Public Safety – Traffic units, CSI, CID, SWAT,  fire service, and arson investigations.   
• Indoor & Outdoor Mapping – Use drones, tablets, or 360  cameras to document and model environments quickly and  safely.   
• Hands-On Training – Expect 1–2 hours of daily flight time plus  software processing sessions.
