The course is very intuitive if you follow it thoroughly & challenging on my part as we entered into a new generation of surveying measurement techniques. This course Land Surveying with drones match my profession as a registered land surveyor in our country. Thanks for sharing your knowledge & expertise.

I find the course informative and with a lot of information to digest.

By Frank Thomas on 11/27/2020

So far the course seems to match my requirements, however I have had some issues with accessing the resource material because most of the material is based on using Windows OS and I use a Mac. The source material should be accessible using either platforms, for example excel files should be available on numbers as well.

learning a lot , good course :)

By Chris Somers on 8/13/2020

So far the course is good. However, being over 3 years old makes me wonder if it's still relevant. For example, the recommended drone is long outdated so is not great advice.
