Providing quality education and information on Aerial Inspections for Real Estate
“I want to share my front row seat, as we watch real estate inspections change with aerial technology.”
Lamar Ellis is the President of Drone Education Services and his goal and passion is to open minds to the benefits of drone technology and its uses for real estate.
He has been part of the Commercial and Residential Real Estate Appraisal industry in Atlanta, GA for over 30 years. He is an MAI and SRA designated appraiser by the Appraisal Institute and has served the Atlanta Chapter as a Director and Education Chair. He currently serves as a Federal Aviation Administration FAASTeam Representative and DronePro for the state of Georgia and is the 2022 Chapter President for the Atlanta Chapter of AUVSI (The Association for UnCrewed Vehicle Systems International).
Lamar’s work has led him to travel the country, presenting in over 40 states in addition to presenting numerous webinars and written seminars on Aerial Inspections for Real Estate to the Appraisal Institute, McKissock, the National Association of Realtors, the American Society of Appraisers, the Right-of-Way Association, State Bar of Georgia, Society of Broadcast Engineers, the Institute of Real Estate Management, the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers, Mississippi Tax Assessors, the FAA, and AUVSI.
We strive to provide a healthy positive understanding of how uncrewed technology can benefit the real estate industry.
We offer half day, full day and multiple day packages for in-person learning
(ask about real estate credits)
Our In-Person Training is the smart start for beginners or drone pilots wanting to level-up their flying skills.
We offer custom-tailored consultation in drone operations and mapping projects.
We have been providing high resolution photography and videography data for 8 years. Let us provide you with the necessary data to make informed decisions.
We capture high resolution imagery and transform it into 2D Orthomosaics and 3D Models.
Did you know that a drone is an uncrewed vehicle? That means Control is either remote control or preprogrammed flight. DRONES are already impacting real estate in unique ways, from underwater bridge inspections, remote trucking, aerial delivery to satellite GIS mapping. Currently there are 3 kinds of aerial drones being used in real estate, the fixed wing which looks like a traditional plane and can glide, a multi-rotor can hover and the VTOL (Vertical take-off and landing) drone which has the abilities and advantages of both. So, are you in an urban or suburban environment? What type of drone is good for you?
Join me and learn about the Types of Drones.
Real estate is a top industry taking advantage of aerial inspections. Drones provide multiple opportunities to service businesses interested in acquiring data. And Aerial inspections enhances your ability to provide more. For appraisers, drones are just another tool in the toolbox for property assessment.
They are used to
• Assist in decision making
• Showcase unique perspectives.
• Provide access to hard to reach places.
• Identify areas of interest.
• Have certifiable real-time data.
To learn about the many real estate opportunities and learn about the many uses of drones in real estate.
When it comes to safety I make it my main focus when flying. I Make sure that I get the data that my client needs. I just had to find the drone that could get it. For me, my drone has to be reliable, durable, easy to use, have enough air time to complete the mission. And be able to handle multiple missions.
Being successful means ALL OF MY MISSIONS are safe and repeatable.
I have developed the proper procedures for a variety of types of operations.
So lets get the necessary information required and learn how to deal with a variety of situations. Those situations could be operational, environmental, or regulatory. If we have a place to fly and clear airspace then we may try a little mapping too.
So, lets
• Set up a safe Launching zone
• Develop a flight plan
• Determine is we need a crew
• Take off and Inspect a property
• Run through some shots to make your presentations exciting
• Land safely
• Give ourselves a debriefing on what we learned.
Join me for Flight Operations.
I began working on Maps, Measurements, and Modeling in 2019. The goal is to be able to share with real estate professionals the benefits of aerial photogrammetry. To gain an understanding of the technology I tested the software’s of Drone Deploy, Pix4D, Maps Made Easy, Zephyr and some programs in the BETA testing phase. I finally decided to use Skyline Software Systems, because it is the most versatile. My maps and models were developed during the testing periods with these different softwares and what I created should not dissuade you from trying them out. In fact I encourage using various mapping programs to develop the skills, understand the technology and begin creating useful products for your clients.
Ready to get in the field? We’ll make sure you have the proper identifications, certifications and registrations to plan and execute a safe and repeatable mission for the aerial inspection of real estate. Learn the operational, environmental and regulatory issues involved in keeping people and property safe.
Whether it’s use or investment, Drone Education Services has been providing education, training, consultation and aerial services since 2014.
Want to pass the exam? We can help. We make sure that you have the tools to begin to make money on Day One. Having safe and repeatable operations is more than passing an exam.
Send us a message with your inquiry. We are happy to put a program to together to match you or your organizations goals.
You’ll get news of new programs and training courses as well as useful flight tips and stay up to date with the latest in drone technologies.
