Hello everyone,
Welcome back. I hope everyone enjoyed the summer.
We are opening our season with a demonstration of drone surveying by Victoria
Air Photos at 11:00 AM (weather permitting) this Saturday, the 24th at Sunbury
Park in North Delta
(Do not go to the offices of the Geological Survey of Canada.)
David Carlos of Victoria Air Photos will travelling from Victoria to North
Delta bringing his equipment including his ground control station with extra
screens so that we can all get a drone's eye view as the survey progresses.
There is parking available at Sunbury Park and for transit users the park is
serviced by the 314 bus.
I look forward to seeing you there Saturday.
Regards,
Doug Hrynyk
Steering Committee Coordinator
Vancouver GIS Users Group

David Carlos of Victoria Air Photos will be giving a demonstration of the steps
involved in carrying out a survey using a drone from planning, through set up,
to flying, and ultimately to a GIS compatible result.
He will discuss and show the actual flight process and show it works in
conjunction with the mapping application.
Since the final results take time to process, he can share results when they
are completed, and give those interested a copy of the geotagged imagery if you
would like to process it using your own software.
Parking is available at Sunbury Park. 10409 Dunlop Road, Delta, BC.
The park is also served by the 314 bus.
