How it works
Robots used
- Camera Drone
Ways to buy it
- Service — you pay for the outcome (one inspection, one show, X acres).
- Purchase Buy the robot (plus software and service plans, usually).
Bot or Not?
A robot makes sense when…
- The job is high, dangerous, or hard to reach
- It is huge or repetitive (acres, nights, square metres)
- You need data you will compare over time
- You need eyes on it right now
Hire a human when…
- It is small, low and one-off
- It needs hands, judgement or a repair
- Weather, permits or timing make robots awkward
- Nobody has defined the job yet
Here's the catch for this job
- Ask for proof of pilot certification and liability insurance (often $1M+).
- Agree on deliverables, resolution and turnaround before flight day.
- Weather days are common; clarify reschedule terms.

Rules and regulation
Drone operations need a licensed remote pilot and local aviation rules: FAA Part 107 (US), EASA Open/Specific categories (EU), CAA (UK), Transport Canada RPAS, DGCA Digital Sky (India), CASA (Australia), CAAC (China). Controlled airspace, night or BVLOS flights may need waivers.
General information, not legal advice. Rules change; ask the operator which permits they hold and verify them.
