Some photos we shot in Santa Rosa Beach, FL! We coordinated with @TeamEglin to operate in this restricted and busy airspace.

We're proud of these photos, and of our ability to operate safely and legally in all kinds of airspace and conditions.

Quality thread from my little brother, who regularly kicks ass.

@ou_cass What happens if you lose the remote desktop connection?

[Peninsula Drone Services, LLC @peninsuladrones]

This is why it's so, so, SO important to know and obey your local airspace restrictions! #drones #suas #phantom #dji https://t.co/CP9FaPlEBE

Due to Hurricane #Florence, we have suspended flight operations until Monday, September 17th. Stay safe!

The Academik Ioffe ran aground at 69 43.0553N, 91 20.9521W around 11:30 AM Mountain Time. We are on a rock. No hull breach, no one hurt.

@jo3hnsullivan Oh, bummer.

An #osprey nest we found while flying for #owlets2! (Don't worry, we checked to make sure nobody was home first!) #nobirdswereannoyedbythisdrone

[Peninsula Drone Services, LLC @peninsuladrones]

@jo3hnsullivan I am not! Is that a thing?

[Peninsula Drone Services, LLC @peninsuladrones]

Rendering some #owlets2 video today! The rendering machine is almost as loud as the #Inspire...

@truedichotomy We flew a 2B Tech personal ozone monitor, which samples ozone at 0.5hz,plus the #inspire flight recorder data. Sadly #owlets2 is over, but now we're working up data!

[Peninsula Drone Services, LLC @peninsuladrones]

Peninsula Drones at OWLETS 2, by the numbers:
* 64 UAV flights.
* 3 sensor packages plus 4k video.
* 46 POM #ozone monitoring flights.
* 107km+ total flight distance.
* 93% data capture rate

@jo3hnsullivan I didn't know they migrated in herds.

[Peninsula Drone Services, LLC @peninsuladrones]

Chased out of the city today by a line of storms! We'll try again tomorrow.

[Peninsula Drone Services, LLC @peninsuladrones]

@DGoldbergAQ We got to see it get precision-checked today! It's right on the money.

[Peninsula Drone Services, LLC @peninsuladrones]

notes: ozone is 2 second measurements in ppbv. datetime is UTC. GPS altitude is from the POM, and is generally unreliable — but gives you a sense of "flying" or "not flying."

[Peninsula Drone Services, LLC @peninsuladrones]

Preliminary data from this afternoon's #dji #inspire UAV-POM flights suggest that there's still high levels of #ozone in the 3Chesapeake. #OWLETS2

That's all for us today, folks — we're packing it in. Stay cool out there!
