<p dir="ltr">Aerial drones for OSM is very intriguing. For example mapping new construction and areas not covered by Bing images or where only low resolution images are available. I wonder the spec would be for a low cost drone?</p>
<p dir="ltr">Seems like a good project for a local community to undertake. Maybe we could get some grant money to build one. </p>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>Here's a pretty interesting post about the use of aerial drones as tools for geomatics in Alberta.</p>

<p>Despites the fact this is in context of a private, extensive use, those expensive drones have cheaper equivalents, as you all know. <br>
This week-end at SotmFr i've heard about drones they've used. <br>
With Guy Talbot, as Quebec local group representatives, we found several exemples of "balloon mapping" (unfortunatly dependant of helium gas and a cord) but what about drones? </p>
