Legal Disclaimer & Compliance Notice
1. Federal Aviation Regulations (FAA)
- Commercial Certification: In the United States, operating a drone for any commercial, business, or revenue-generating purpose—including those advertised on this page—requires a valid FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate.
- Drone Registration: All drones weighing more than 0.55 lbs (250g) must be registered with the FAA via the FAADroneZone portal before operation.
- Remote ID Compliance: As of September 16, 2023, all drones operated in U.S. airspace (unless flown within a FRIA) must be equipped with and broadcast Remote ID information as required by the FAA.
2. Professional Licensing & Surveying
- Informational Purposes Only: The geospatial data, orthomosaic maps, and 3D models generated by the drones on this site are intended for informational and internal business use only.
- Surveying Restrictions: Use of the term "Surveying" or "Survey-Grade" refers to the technical precision of the GPS/RTK hardware modules and not to the legal practice of land surveying.
- Professional Verification: These products do not authorize the user to perform licensed land surveying services. Final boundary determinations, legal plats, or any geospatial data required for legal or engineering certification must be verified or performed by a Licensed Professional Land Surveyor (PLS) in accordance with your specific state laws.
3. Operational Limitations & Accuracy
- RTK/GNSS Precision: While RTK-equipped drones can achieve centimeter-level positioning, final data accuracy is dependent on external factors including satellite geometry, cellular/base station correction links, and the use of verified Ground Control Points (GCPs).
- Safe Operation: Owners and operators are responsible for conducting a pre-flight inspection and ensuring the aircraft is in a condition for safe operation. Operations must be conducted within Visual Line of Sight (VLOS) and at or below 400 feet AGL unless a specific FAA waiver is obtained.
4. Liability & Insurance
- User Responsibility: [Your Company Name] is a retailer and is not liable for any property damage, personal injury, or legal fines resulting from the improper or illegal use of these products.
- Insurance Recommendation: It is strongly recommended that commercial operators carry drone liability insurance to protect against unforeseen injury or damage to third parties.
