It is also common for most surveying UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) drones to be equipped with VTOL (vertical take-off and landing) capabilities &#8211; as a matter of course in 2020.<\/span><\/p><p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">What\u00a0is the Difference between VTOL and UAV in Aerial Surveying?<\/span><\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We distinguish some drones used for aerial surveying as VTOL and some as standard UAV. It is important to note that all drones are UAVs but not all drones have VTOL. VTOL drones work in a series of steps:<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1) Aerial mapping drones with VTOL capabilities start with firm placement on the ground and proceed to soar vertically into the air using their rotors. No piloting skills are necessary during this take off as it is fully automated &#8211; but certification from Australia\u2019s Civil Aviation Safety Authority is necessary for VTOL drones over 2kg.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2) VTOL drones are easier for the operator and less complicated during the launching process (as compared to traditional methods such as a catapult-launch or manual launching by throwing).<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3)Once in the air, the VTOL survey drone tilts its rotors horizontally and travels forward like an aeroplane in flight mode with a fast airspeed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4)The VTOL drones rotors then tilt vertically again to finish the desired flight route. The drone autonomously lands on the ground in the same place where it started in a vertical position.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5) This process is all handled by the land-based operator using a control panel on an iPad, Toughpad or even a mobile phone application.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, standard UAV drones use operators who typically throw the drones into the air or use a land-based catapult system. This method is effective but out-dated which has some inherent safety issues and risks to the operator or the surrounding environment. The drone itself will be more prone to damage causing the need for costly repairs or replacement. VTOL is an amazing advancement in the launching and flying of professional survey drones.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-c22d024 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c22d024\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-28a0dfb\" data-id=\"28a0dfb\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-465ee9b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"465ee9b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><b>What is the Payload in VTOL and UAV?<\/b><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When a person refers to the \u2018payload of drones\u2019, they are referring to two things &#8211;\u00a0 firstly to the amount of camera weight or additional survey technology that a single drone can carry within its lifting limits and capability. Secondly &#8211; and more specifically to the survey and geospatial industry, we are referring to the quality of the sensor that is being lifted into the air for the purposes of geospatial mapping or photogrammetric surveying.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each specific drone brand and type has varying payload capacities including a difference between VTOL and standard UAV. Standard fixed-wing drones land flat with an average-sized camera attached which also faces the ground to take images. The camera is then left vulnerable to abrasion, dust and dirt from rough terrain. However, drones with vertical landing ensure that the expensive cameras and sensors affixed to the underside of the drone never come into contact with the ground.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, in the surveyor community &#8211; the \u2018payload\u2019 of a drone refers to the type of survey-capable equipment that the drone is lifting &#8211; meaning the quality of the camera (usually expressed in megapixels), the laser scanner or Lidar attachment, the multi-spectral sensor or thermal sensor.\u00a0 A payload is, therefore, an expression related to the surveying capabilities of a drone more so than the weight (which is still related, don\u2019t worry!).<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to the weight of a payload &#8211; there is a term called \u2018all up weight\u2019 or AUW &#8211; which is the total carrying capacity of the drone that is clearly expressed in the specifications of the drone prior to purchase. And while the sensor is the most important fixture of a drone for surveying applications, the AUW can include the weight of the battery powering the drone and the survey equipment, the data management features (such as the onboard storage of the thousands of high-resolution images that are being taken by the drone every second) and the RTK technology that gives the drone a relative position using GPS.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-5ff1425\" data-id=\"5ff1425\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5cf6ba7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5cf6ba7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Trinity-Nixon.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-17621\" alt=\"Surveyor using the Trinity F9 survey drone from Aptella\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Trinity-Nixon.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Trinity-Nixon-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Trinity-Nixon-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Trinity-Nixon-400x533.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Trinity-Nixon-500x667.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-f864207 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f864207\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-65a1d00\" data-id=\"65a1d00\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fdf1642 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fdf1642\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><b>VTOL Payloads by Survey Drone Type <\/b><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When we look at the industry standard VTOL survey drone, there is an obvious correlation between the size and carrying capacity of a drone, a larger payload and higher survey accuracy.
