HES undertook a series of 15 UAV (drone) sorties in 2019 at a range of archaeological sites across Scotland. Flights were in general undertake to capture oblique aerial photographs that would enhance the record of particular sites or landscapes, and support other HES recording projects. Approximately 12 hours were spent airborne and a total of more than 1000 images and 10 videos were captured documenting about 80 archaeological sites. Images for 3D modelling with ground control points were captured at three sites, and a further two sites were surveyed with GNSS control. Each of the images and videos has been catalogued and the flight records are available on request. Flights were undertaken with a DJI Phantom 4 Pro and a DJI Inspire 2 mounted with an X7 camera and a 16mm lens.
