By his profile you may be able to gauge Ron’s expertise at 1UP. FLIR equipped drones and Thermography! The possible applications for thermal imagery are growing and endless. Ron is a FAA Part 107 Certified Pilot and a Level 1 ITC Certified Infrared Thermographer. He regularly provides inspection projects involving solar panels, electrical infrastructure, commercial buildings/roofing, pipeline monitoring, precision agriculture, security, traffic monitoring, and SAR (search and rescue). I like to say he “runs hot and cold”!
Ron is a native of Nebraska and tells us last winter he had the opportunity to be a “drone rancher” helping a farmer with livestock inventory management while counting heads of cattle with a drone. He has also recently had some adrenaline rush flights over the beautiful coast of Oregon while chasing seagulls (or was it the other way around). In his off hours you will find him enjoying the great outdoors, living the “lake life”, hiking the mountains, fishing and camping with his wife and dogs.
Drone watch dogs….
