Course Overview
Drone Course Singapore – Aerial Surveillance Training
As drones become cheaper and more versatile through the years, aerial surveillance and inspections with drones have also grown easier to carry out as compared to more traditional modes of surveillance and management. Public agencies across many industry sectors have already begun testing and even operationalising the use of drones in such areas, most notably by the SPF in surveillance and crowd control since 2016.
This course will equip participants with the know-how to operate aerial drones in the execution of surveillance and/or inspection tasks according to technical and operational specifications, specifically in the area of security. It will also cover the legal, operational, and safety considerations and requirements behind the planning and executing of such aerial surveillance/inspection operations.
