Advantages of the drones

Drones are an avant-garde technology and at our fingertips that have gained much popularity in recent years, but is it just a passing fad or are they here to stay? ...

 

Versatility:

Drones are unmanned flight vehicles that vary in size and are enabled to work and link with other tools taking advantage of the visual perspective that is achieved from the air; take photographs, visualize and measure land and routes, make architectural surveys, industrial development plans and primary sector, among others regardless of the terrain conditions we have. Using drones, we have absolute versatility about the shots we want to take, the areas we want to observe and the space through which we need to travel. There is a diversity and variety of types and sizes of drones and unmanned aircraft that adapt to the needs of almost any planning task, visualization of land with technical and / or creative objectives.

Low cost:

The costs that we need to be able to use the applications of the drones, are substantively inferior to other options and techniques used so far to achieve the same results. The price per hour of flight is lower in drones than in airplanes or helicopters and it is possible to introduce price ranges that until now were inaccessible

for other sectors and markets.

Time reduction:

The drones favor the reduction of times, making the tasks more efficient if we compare it with any other solution. There are drone options and combinations of tools that adapt to these, achieving jobs where landings and takeoffs are possible almost anywhere (as long as regulations allow), while a small plane has to start and finish its journey in an

airport.

Low environmental impact:

If we look at the distances traveled by a drone to perform a task, they are always inferior to other options, this because we can take off and land very close to the place of operation. As a result, by having smaller routes, environmental pollution also decreases.

In addition, in most cases a drone is moved by means of an electric battery.

Reduce risks:

Being an unmanned device, the risk that is run is lower than in those occasions where the operator or pilot has to be in the same place where the work is being done.

They are precise:

It is clear that, if we are faced with significant wind speeds, drones are not the best to withstand them. But if we are in a minimally controlled and stable environment, we can say that we are facing very precise devices that allow us to have a very controlled flight. Undoubtedly the advantages that the drones provide are wide and exponential; Without hesitation they are here to stay and it will be very difficult to displace the drones from the market. The best thing is to take advantage of these new technologies and benefit from all possible sectors.

What is a drone?

A drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle.Its name is derived from the English drone, which in Spanish is translated as: "male bee". There are drones of different sizes and with different purposes for a long time, but their manufacturing cost was very high for large scale commercialization and did not have the characteristics they currently have.

dron_sobre_el_agua

The main characteristic of a drone is that its flight is controlled remotely. Some through the intervention of software and others directly through a pilot who directs it from the ground.

 

TYPES OF DRONES

 

Drones can be of two types. Those that resemble an airplane: take off, follow a trajectory in the air and land; and those that look like a helicopter: These have the same characteristics as the first, but are able to stay static in the air.

 

These can also be differentiated by their types of platforms, which are basically of two types: fixed wing and rotating wing; The fixed wing has the appearance and shape of a model airplane and the rotary wing is divided into two types: helicopters and multirotors.

 

Multirotors are the most popular tool currently and the one we commonly have in our minds when thinking of a drone. This design provides great versatility and efficiency in operations due to its simplicity in the controls at the time of being piloted and the speed of assembly. It is a stable platform by nature, because the engines are at the same distance from the center of gravity of the aircraft.

According to the number of engines we can also classify them as follows: in trichopters (3 engines), quadcopters (4 engines), hexacopter (6 engines) and octocopter (8 engines); and according to the configuration of the arms its classification is: in "Y" (Greek i), " Y inverted" (inverted Greek i), "X", "+" (cross).

 

On the other hand, there are also coaxial multirotors - that is, two motors per arm. This provides a saving in the weight of the apparatus by having half the arms but, on the contrary, aerodynamic efficiency is reduced. When choosing between a multi-rotor or another, we must take into account that more arms represent greater stability and greater safety, while more engines represent greater propulsion and, therefore, higher battery consumption.

Currently, the advantages of using drones are many thanks to the technology that has been developed, and due to its different sizes and capacities it is possible to fly, assess and visualize all kinds of areas and routes that in the past were inaccessible.

With unmanned aircraft we have absolute freedom and versatility to generate graphic shots of infinity of areas and terrains that we want to observe and visualize, dictating and choosing with total freedom the route and the space for which we want to travel.

There is no tool more versatile than a drone to generate visual content and perform tasks that until now implied a high investment of resources for its realization. The creative and technological capabilities of a drone are endless and applicable to any type of project. The advantages (in price, management, operability, etc.) are substantial compared to other tools and methods.

Faro Cancun in Drone

FARO CANCÚN

At present, the use of lighthouses is almost obsolete thanks to the use of GPS navigation systems. In Mexico, however, currently operate 135 along the coasts and coast of the nation, are a historical legacy and symbol of cultural identity.

Depending on its use, there are three types of lighthouses: 1) those of landfall that facilitate the arrival of ships; 2) Intermediate, they work as complements of lighthouses of arrival, they are in the coasts and offer aid to the navigator; and 3) situation, and serve to indicate accidents or risk situations for navigation (Government of the Republic, 2017).

The lighthouse of Costa Cancun is iconic of the hotel zone, a place recognized for its harmony and beauty that allows you to enjoy and capture unforgettable postcards. Supposedly it is a place of public access -as- according to Mexican legislation, the beaches are federal property and free of traffic (Luckie, 2018).

Accessing the lighthouse can be complicated, since there are no free passes due to the excessive sale of lots and uncontrolled hotel construction; If you try to enter the beach, the nearest access is through Playa Caracol. In an interview with Helena Hernandez, Tiziana Roma mentions the following (2018): "little by little, access to the beach has been limited to citizens (...) previously the first inhabitants of Cancun could freely enjoy the beaches, but now it seems that the population was strange or foreign and each time has less opportunity to enjoy it ".

 

Let's take care of what we have, this is Mexico.

Nevado de Toluca in Drone

NEVADO DE TOLUCA

Also known as Xinantécatl, which means "naked man" in Mixtec language. It is the fourth highest peak in Mexico (4,680 m), a volcano located in the State of Mexico, between the valley of Toluca and the valley of Matlatzinco.

According to experts, 25 million years ago the height of this volcano was 6,000 m and it had glaciers on its tops; it is estimated that the first time it erupted was 30,000 years ago and formed its crater, 11,000 years ago another great eruption occurred that the west side of the crater disappeared, and sometime later, in the center, a hill was formed which was named “El Ombligo”, this formation divided the crater into two parts that with the thaw became the lagoons of El Sol and La Luna. (Unión Edomex, 2018).

At the beginning of the 20th century, the most extensive agrarian reform in Latin America took place in Mexico, distributing two thirds of the national territory in the form of ejidos. It was not until 1980, with the establishment of the neoliberal economic model, that the progressive withdrawal of the State from agricultural development policies began, opening the land to privatization. (Tuscany, 2015).

On October 1, 2013, under the presidency of Enrique Peña Nieto, a decree was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation that modified the status of the Nevado de Toluca National Park that President Lázaro Cárdenas had established in 1936 to the Protection Area of Flora and Fauna as follows: the total area of the protected area (53 thousand 590 hectares) was divided into two zones:

The core (1 thousand 941 hectares) -which has greater ecological importance- is a restricted area of conservation activities ; the second part, the buffer part (51 thousand 649 hectares) was determined as an area where activities of extractive use of wildlife and forest management are allowed.

blog2

This generated tensions with the ejido of Loma Alta, since its recategorization implies new rules around the use of natural resources and activities, waiting for the farmers to modify their activities or to emigrate. (Tuscany, 2015). Eduardo Arenas and José Eseverri point out that the forest and its inhabitants should be understood as an ecosystem and not as isolated entities that are determined by the status of legal protection granted to them, and that community forests have proven to be a viable option for achieve environmental, social and economic benefits; the protection and sustainability of the environment become crucial for the community that lives from it. Of the agrarian nuclei that have forest land, 2 thousand 300 have forestry management plans, 4 thousand communities started conservation programs between 2009 and 2013 and there are more than 600 thousand hectares certified for good management.

Protecting in a responsible manner and using resources appropriately is essential at present. To achieve sustainability in natural landscapes it is vital to take into account the reality in which people live, considering harmony with the environment.
