HES undertook a series of 7 UAV (drone) sorties in 2020 at a range of archaeological sites, with operations being curtailed by Coronavirus restrictions. 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 3 hours were spent airborne and a total of more than 650 images and 1 video were captured documenting about 10 archaeological sites. Images for 3D modelling with GNSS ground control points were captured at two sites: Union Canal, Polmont (NS97NW 61) and Dunmore fort, Callander (NN60NW 7). 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 a DJI X7 camera and 16mm and 35mm lenses.
