Curious how to turn drone images into detailed maps and 3D models? In this 1-on-1 course, you’ll learn how to use WebODM to process and visualize geospatial data—with personal guidance every step of the way. Through online modules and hands-on assignments, you’ll gain practical skills to analyze and present drone imagery with confidence.
WebODM (Web OpenDroneMap) is powerful open-source software built for processing drone imagery. It helps you transform aerial photos into detailed maps, 3D models, and digital elevation models (DEMs)—essential tools in fields like mapping, agriculture, construction, and environmental monitoring.
Its user-friendly web interface makes it accessible for beginners, while still offering the power advanced users need. Whether you’re creating accurate topographic maps or developing complex terrain models, WebODM provides the flexibility to get the job done efficiently.
And because it’s open-source, you have full control—without relying on expensive licenses. This makes it a cost-effective and adaptable solution across industries.
In the Blended Learning: WebODM course, you’ll learn how to process drone images and convert them into useful geospatial data. The course blends flexible online study with interactive sessions, so you gain both theory and hands-on experience.
You’ll start by learning the basics of photogrammetry—how to turn aerial photos into maps and 3D models. Then you’ll install and configure WebODM to suit your project needs. From there, you’ll dive into creating orthomosaics and DEMs, and using advanced techniques to visualize and analyze data for real-world applications.
This course is designed for all levels—whether you’re new to drone imagery or looking to sharpen your existing skills. You’ll work with real datasets and build practical expertise you can apply in industries like land surveying, agriculture, environmental science, and construction.
Blended learning gives you the best of both worlds—live interaction and flexible self-paced study—so you can build real, job-ready skills in drone image processing and geospatial analysis.
We kick off with a live session where you’ll start working with real drone data right away. With guidance from WebODM experts, you’ll install the software, set up your first project, and generate outputs like orthomosaics and elevation models.
Next, our self-paced modules let you explore key topics on your schedule. You’ll dive into photogrammetry, drone data workflows, and the steps for turning imagery into geospatial products. You’ll also learn how to troubleshoot issues and improve data quality as you go.
Later, in a second live session, you’ll apply what you’ve learned to a complete project. You’ll process new drone imagery, refine your results, and get direct feedback to strengthen your workflow.
One of the highlights of the course is its case-based approach. You’ll take on real-world tasks—just like professionals working in GIS, construction, or environmental monitoring.
By combining expert-led training with practical experience, this course goes far beyond the basics. By the end, you’ll confidently process, analyze, and apply drone imagery—unlocking powerful insights for smarter decision-making in your work.
