Course Detail: CEPD-TMLDRN - Thermal Drone Operations & Flight Application Workshop

Thermal Drone Operations & Flight Application Workshop 

Fee:
$100
Date(s): Saturdays, September 12 or November 14, 2026 
Time: 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM

Description:
Expand your aerial capabilities with specialized, hands-on training in thermal imaging and unmanned aerial flight applications. This applied course introduces pilots to radiometric thermal sensors, thermal palette selection, heat signature analysis, and practical flight tactics used across public safety, roof and infrastructure inspection, agriculture, and search-and-rescue operations.
Participants will learn how to operate thermal-equipped aircraft safely, interpret infrared data in real time, and execute mission-specific flight paths in field conditions. 

Weather Dependency & Flight Requirements 
  • Weather-Dependent Operations: Outdoor flight applications and sensor calibration are strictly subject to weather conditions (wind, visibility, and precipitation). Rain dates or alternate indoor simulation modules will be communicated if weather restricts safe flight operations. 
  • Prerequisites & Equipment: Prior basic flight experience is recommended. Aircraft and thermal imaging payloads will be integrated during on-site demonstrations and supervised flight exercises.
