Survey Technician, Justin Geddis, Passes Survey Drone Exam

We’re excited to share that one of our Survey Technicians, Justin Geddis, has passed his FAA Part 107 Drone Pilot Exam with an outstanding 92%!

The Part 107 exam is no small feat—it covers critical topics such as FAA regulations, airspace classifications, weather patterns, and safe flight procedures for small, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). Earning this certification is a key requirement for commercial drone operation and reflects a strong understanding of safe and responsible flight practices.

Justin’s achievement positions him to play an even greater role in our survey drone program, enhancing our ability to capture accurate, efficient, and high-quality data from the field.

Congratulations, Justin!
