Drone Camp 2022

June 27-July 1 | CSU Monterey Bay

A Hybrid Event

 DroneCamp is a collaborative five-day training program that covers everything you need to know to use drones for mapping and field data collection. No experience is necessary.

Now in its sixth year, Drone Camp 2022 will once again provide a unique drone training opportunity designed for a wide range of skill levels and interests, from complete beginners with little to no experience in drone technology, to intermediate users who want to learn more advanced data processing and analysis. Instructors from the University of California and California State University systems will provide workshops and hands-on training. Learn more here.

We are excited to be offering this year’s program in a hybrid format where an in-person audience will be simultaneously viewing the presentations and workshops with a virtual live broadcast via Zoom for those who can’t attend in-person.
