05 Oct Mapping With Drones Workshops – New Dates Announced
Dr. John McGee, Geospatial Extension Specialist at Virginia Tech is offering several Mapping with Drones workshops in the near future. The 3-day workshop will prepare participants with the knowledge necessary to take the FAA Remote Knowledge Aircraft Test (aka Part 107).
