Marty Gould, the Owner and Chief Pilot at Beacon Aviation, Inc, is a busy man. He operates a fixed-wing aircraft on projects throughout the Midwest. Most of his work involves mining and corridor mapping. Since the entry of drones into the market, many of his customers have been approached by local drone operators offering similar services. He is often asked about the use of drones to facilitate these mapping projects and is able to help his customers navigate through the process of determining which platform is better suited. Each has its pros and cons.

Specifically, attendees will learn about the following:
