This book focuses specifically on small flying drones and their applications in conducting geographic surveys. Scholars and professionals will discover the potential of this tool, and hopefully develop a conceptual and methodological framework for doing the following things: a) Translate their data acquisition needs into implementation and operational specifications. (b) Use the developed specifications to choose the best accessible system configuration for their drones, and (c) Design and organize effective and low-cost field deployment and flight operations by integrating technical aspects with regulatory and research requirements. Readers can apply this knowledge to research in cartography, environmental monitoring and analysis, landuse studies and landscape archaeology. Particular attention is also given to the reasons why a drone can dramatically boost a geographer's capability to understand phenomena both from hard-science and humanities-oriented perspectives
