In this episode of Your Drone Questions. Answered, host Chris Breedlove sits down with Matt Nanney from AECOM to explore real-world examples of complex drone operations and how to effectively manage their unique challenges.

Matt shares valuable insights from his 16+ years of experience, covering a wide range of advanced drone missions—from post-hurricane damage assessments and rare species habitat mapping to large-scale corridor projects and BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line of Sight) operations. Learn how his team tackles regulatory hurdles, coordinates with multiple agencies, and overcomes obstacles in tough environments like dense forests, disaster zones, and nighttime conditions.
