Good and important questions, Ray. Our bit was doing a ground-based photogrammetric survey using mobile phones and a 24' painter extension poles. The use was for research in methods of collecting structure and activities data for Urban Studies. eg, does photogrammetry from the ground approximate LiDAR measurements of building heights in areas of the world where LIDAR coverage is sparse. And can we capture and monitor in real time.
While we were surveying, a member of the SFI and hobbyist/recreational drone user noticed our work and volunteered drone imagery. Imagery was not sold nor contracted for and permission was granted to fly after hours when staff and students were gone. Of course I am not an authority in the legal issues around drones but a resource that addresses this is http://knowbeforeyoufly.org/. It explains how public entities and commercial user have more restrictions than recreational user. At a larger scale, we think there is a strong need to have privacy embedded in pointcloud data - very similar to HIPAA regulations intent that looks for aggregate benefit while protecting individual privacy. We think there's distributed ways of aggregating individual's pointcloud data without using centralized servers while using agents to mediate questions asked of the data. Somewhat inspiring to us is the idea of "Souveillance" instead of "Surveillance": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sousveillance We'd like to talk with anyone that interested in this space and applications. -S --- -. . ..-. .. ... .... - .-- --- ..-. .. ... ....
