CPD: An Introduction to Drones

by ARPAS-UK, in association with Connected Places Catapult

An insight into the world of drones by keynote speakers from the industry.

Technology and applications move at lightning speed in the world of drones, sensors, and methodologies to gather information and interpret. Keeping up with the pace of change is vital to select the appropriate tools. That also demands an understanding of what works, and what doesn’t and an appreciation of the real benefits of drone technologies when applied to business.

Here we focus on how to get the best out of procurement, technology matching, and selection of service providers to ensure optimum results.
