A Complete Guide to the DJI Drone Ban 2025
Updated for 2025 – What It Means for Mapping, Inspection, Public Safety, and More The DJI drone ban is not hypothetical—it’s on a federal countdown. Under the 2025 NDAA, if no national security agency audits DJI by December 23, 2025, the FCC is required to blacklist the company. That means no new model approvals, firmware authorizations, or imports. This guide...

Drone Mapping Software Comparison Guide
Choosing the right drone software is one of the biggest decisions professionals face today. The right platform can mean the difference between centimeter-level accuracy and costly rework, or between audit-ready logs and hours of manual cleanup. With so many tools competing for attention—cloud platforms, desktop photogrammetry engines, open-source projects—professionals need clarity. This 2025 guide delivers that clarity. We break down...

DSLRPros Drone Bundles for Deer and Hog Hunting: Mission-Ready Kits for Every...
Wild hogs aren’t just a nuisance. They can devastate entire fields in a single season. One study found feral pigs caused up to 9.2% damage in monitored cornfields, equal to 3,416 kg of lost grain per hectare. Meanwhile, deer hunters know the frustration of long, exhausting searches for downed game. Across the U.S., hunters and land managers face the same...

Drone Infrastructure Inspection for Bridges, Roads and Buildings
Critical infrastructure keeps society running: bridges, highways, high-rise buildings, power lines, and pipelines. All of these structures need routine inspection to ensure safety and prevent catastrophic failures. Traditional methods rely on scaffolding, cranes, or manual climbing—techniques that are slow, dangerous, and expensive. Enter drones. Drone infrastructure inspection uses UAVs equipped with high-resolution cameras, LiDAR sensors, and thermal imaging to inspect...

PPK vs RTK in Drone Mapping Explained
When drone operators talk about accuracy, they’re not debating meters—they’re debating centimeters. Standard GPS signals from satellites can drift off target by several feet, which is unacceptable for high-stakes missions like surveying, mapping, or public safety. That’s where advanced GNSS correction methods—PPK (Post-Processed Kinematic) and RTK (Real-Time Kinematic)—come in. For professionals comparing PPK vs RTK drones, the conversation often boils down...

FAA BVLOS NPRM Under Part 108 – Complete Guide for Drone Buyers and Ops Teams
The FAA’s long-anticipated Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) for Part 108 is here. For the first time, Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations are moving toward a clear legal path—one that will impact every buyer, every operations team, and every industry that depends on drones. This is not a vague policy update. It’s a roadmap. If you plan to...
