What the New FAA Drone Rule Means for Surveyors
From POB Magazine:
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has finalized the first operational rule, Part 107, for routine commercial use of small unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), also known as drones. The new guidelines, finalized in June and effective Aug. 29, open up the skies to drone operation for business like never before. According to industry estimates, the new rule could generate more than $82 billion for the U.S. economy and create more than 100,000 new jobs over the next 10 years, the FAA says.
