The reason why I wish to join your team is because I believe that the future is now and that drones are the way to go.
The applications are endless.
My curiosity has the end of world saving applications in mind, such as the drone concept which won the Hello Tomorrow Challenge's Orange Prize and can drop a projected 36,000 seed pods a day.
It's only a mere projection, but even a small fraction of that planted is a resounding success for what drones are capable of.
Such a research project, namely "precision forestry" is being targeted for South Africa. The founders of Drone Deploy, three of which are South African - make a great case for the use of such software as well.. drones used well can save time, and money and ultimately to serve their human bosses better!
Mapping and monitoring are precisely important parts of such an activity, especially reforestation!
I own two drones myself.
A trainer drone: a 2.4Ghz 6-Axis Gyro 4 Channels Quadcopter ...and a 2.4G 4CH 6-Axis Gyro RC Quadcopter with an HD Camera.
Unfortunately, I do not own your requisite related DJI Phantom 2 Vision + drone
as of yet which your software is connected with. But that can be arranged..
After this being said, flight automation, aerial data capture, high resolution 3D maps are clearly of the essence for commercial drone use along with collecting, processing and analyzing drone data.
And lastly, one touch simplicity for flight path setting? Impressive. Sign me up.
My most valuable point of contribution would be in Software Testing and Research.
I have used Ruby On Rails before to complete a Back End Web application which archives plant data and contains an Application Programming Interface with a user newsfeed from Reddit.
I have also served as a User Experience Tester for the Oculus Rift.
In research, I am familiar with concepts that may relate (or not) to drone mapping software one of which is Object Oriented Programming.
Objects contain data, which has attributes that can be worked on by methods. It's what I've dealt with in completing a Back End Web Development, data driven application for plant information.
It's not too much to share, but this is a start.
Why do I want to join your team? To be immersed in the use of mapping technology for optimizing drone flight patterns, flight path targeting and monitoring.
What do I seek to accomplish during my internship? Perhaps I'd like to do my own drone flight path studies project and integrate it with the data, Drone Deploy uses.
Definitely, and kindly do have me on board.
Cheers to a bright tomorrow,
-Ryan
