This advanced-level course provides a complete, hands-on learning experience in drone assembling, UAV operations, and image processing. Participants will begin with the fundamentals of drone technology, including drone components, applications, and current industry trends. The course then delves into LIDAR, point cloud generation, terrain modeling (DSM, DTM, DEM), and advanced project workflows using industry-standard software.In the second module, learners explore UAV image processing—covering photogrammetry, GIS, RTK/PPK processing, orthostatic creation, volume calculations, and 3D modeling. Real-time projects include custom drone assembly, flying practice, and complete end-to-end data processing workflows for practical applications in mapping, civil engineering, and environmental monitoring.By the end, students will be equipped to design, build, operate, and process data from drones for professional-grade surveying and analysis.Fundamentals of Drone TechnologyIntroduction to Drone TechnologyCertifications & Types of DronesHistory and Evolution of DronesDrone Aerodynamics and Modern EvolutionHow Drones FlyKey Factors in Drone OperationsApplications of Drone TechnologyApplications in Education and AviationDrone Communication and Camera SetupFlight Dynamics & ControlDrone Ground ClassAdvanced Drone TechnologiesFlight Planning, Data Processing & GIS ApplicationsArtificial Intelligence in Drone TechnologyAI & IoT Integration: Applications, Challenges & Future TrendsDrone Mapping & AI IntegrationIntroduction to Drone Repair & MaintenanceAI & ML-Powered Drone Innovations and ApplicationsGIS and Remote SensingDrones in AgriculturePrecision Farming Applications (John Deere Case Study)Testing and Implementation in FarmingData Analysis for Precision AgricultureDrone Operations, Safety & MappingAdvanced Flight Operations and AutomationSafety Protocols in Drone OperationsUAVs in Modern Surveying, Mapping & LiDAR TechnologyFuture of Drone TechnologyEmerging Advancements & Industry ApplicationsEdge Computing in Drone SystemsData Analysis & Ethical ConsiderationsDrones in Parcel Delivery & Future ProspectsTransforming Parcel Delivery with Drone TechnologyTechnical Requirements, Challenges & SolutionsMaterials, Methodologies & Case Study ConclusionsDrone Technology: A 10-Year VisionHands-On Real-Time Exposure TasksDrone Enabled Disaster Response and Relief OperationsExploring the use of drones for rapid assessment, rescue support, and resource delivery during disaster situations.Drone for Efficient Water ManagementUtilizing drone technology to monitor, analyze, and optimize water resources in agriculture and urban systems.Drones for Automated Parcel Delivery: Use Case Identification and Technical RequirementsStudying real-world use cases and defining the technical needs for large-scale automated parcel delivery systems.Implementing John Deere's Precision Agriculture Technology for Enhanced Farm OperationsApplying drone-based precision farming methods to improve efficiency, crop yield, and sustainable farming practices.Modern Tool in Monitoring Rural & Urban DevelopmentLeveraging drones for real-time monitoring, mapping, and analysis to support infrastructure planning and development.
