Training – A2 Open Category Course is now available.
At Survey Drones Ireland we believe that quality training is a critical part of drone operations. Our training will benefit you greatly progressing with your knowledge and understanding of safe, efficient and legal drone operations. Throughout the years we have seen countless situations where operators are not aware of the many pitfalls every aspect of drone operations present. Oftentimes resulting in costly consequences from crashed drones to incorrect data processing.
Inadequate training can quickly amplify the risks involved with both controlling a drone and processing acquired survey data such as accurately geotagged images and ground control. Our training courses have been built upon a wealth of knowledge and experience that will steer you clear of pitfalls and help you mitigate the risk associated with every aspect of drone operations.
Great quality training allows you to be confident in carrying out safe, efficient and legal operations while knowing that you delivered a great product to the client.
