Commercial Pilots

[Matt Wojda]

I have a lot of experience with GIS and remote sensing and would like to get into the commercial drone field for agriculture and mapping services. I was wondering if anyone in the area has had experience with this and would be interested in sharing some insight into how they got into it.

I would recommend that you research what the software companies i.e.. DroneDeploy has to offer. That is what the average farmer may want from you in their field. Then find a farmer and ask if you can test out your equipment over one of his fields. Offer that data to him for free in exchange he can be a spokesman for you and your new business.
