What will you learn
You’ll start by setting up your Python development environment and getting familiar with DroneKit Python. From there, you’ll learn to write your first scripts for basic drone actions like take-off, flying to waypoints, and collecting data. We’ll walk you through the fundamentals of drone communication, real-time telemetry, and mission control.
As the course progresses, you’ll explore how to automate drone behavior, respond to sensor input, and integrate flight data with other geospatial tools. You’ll plan projects, build software to match your goals, and safely test your drone programs in simulation and real-world scenarios.
Our approach mixes foundational Python knowledge with hands-on coding challenges. You’ll work on exercises that link drone control to practical geodata tasks, like mapping, measuring, and monitoring. By the end, you’ll not only know how drones fly—you’ll know how to make them work smarter.
