quadcopters/hexacopters/octocopters/microcopters equipped with a camera
are much better than a satellite. Easier and cheaper to use, and most
important: satellites give only rather poor quality images, often with
lots of clouds... Digital orthophotos and the high resolution imagery of
google (and others) are made from planes, not from satellites.
