Most inspection flights leave photos nobody can reuse. Team UAV captured 500 NGED transformers with a repeatable method and a GIS record for each. AI results aren't in yet. The lesson: the record is the product. Could a colleague find yours?

The FAA's draft vertiport standards (AC 150/5390-4) are open for comment until Jan 11, 2027. Industry day is Nov 10. Draft, not final. Cities will field the questions when a developer says a rooftop pad meets it. Read it now.

A town voted 510 to 13 on drone rules. Then the state said Amazon needs its approval first. Zoning appeal Nov 2, Planning Board Nov 10. Federal flight approval doesn't settle the local site questions. Who answers the first resident call?

San Francisco's Police Commission voted 5-1 on Oct 14 to advance its first police drone policy. It bans general surveillance, but "public safety" is still undefined. A policy says what a drone may do. A log shows what it did.

Gastonia, NC told residents why Walmart delivery drones may fly over their neighborhoods. Good. But a notice isn't a record. Publish flight numbers, noise data and a complaint line before the first delivery.

Dominion Energy plans to add 100 docked drones for inspections. The FAA's proposed Part 74 would let critical infrastructure sites petition for flight restrictions. Sites that log what flies nearby will be better placed. Would yours qualify?

A 200-acre fire jumped a river in Stone County, Missouri on Oct 12. A fire district's drone, bought with grant money meant for water rescues, showed crews where. Highlandville's chief had never seen a drone at a fire. Does your fire district have one?
