Sanborn is pioneering the development of new mapping products and services for the breaking UAS marketplace. An unmanned aircraft system (UAS), is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. UAS flights and flight plans are determined either autonomously by onboard CPUs or via remote control by a ground-based pilot and are poised to increase efficiency and bring new processes to bear in high-accuracy / small area applications.
