Small UAVs, like the drones, can take photos from above and thus record terrestrial places that are difficult or impossible to reach and measure from the ground. Today's drones have great flight capabilities and can be remotely controlled, which makes them suitable for aerial surveying in the most difficult areas. Therefore, they replaced helicopters and other aircraft in surveying.
Aerial surveys have application in different fields, including topography, digital mapping, archeology, feature recognition, for GIS applications, and so on. Actually, a lot of professional organizations around the world have a need for aerial surveys, and this is a good opportunity to open a private company and offer services in aerial surveying.
So, if you want to earn money from surveying, you have to offer the best quality photography services to your clients. Of course, aside from aerial photography, you also must be skilled in surveying and have a specific license to deal with this job.
