The drone industry is growing in Malaysia. And drone firm Aerodyne_Group says it will only continue to grow

Starting from just drone-captured visuals, Aerodyne quickly pivoted and went into providing “actionable data”. It means processing the raw data captured by the drones, and giving their clients information that the latter need to act upon immediately.

Mr Armi of OFO Tech added: “In truth, we’re becoming more like drone data companies, rather than drone companies”. The Department of Survey and Mapping Malaysia issues permits for drone flights on the basis that all mapping activities, including drone mapping and surveying, falls under its jurisdiction due to national security.

However, Mr William Alvisse, a former aerial photographer and now the executive secretary for the Malaysia Unmanned Drone Activist Society noted: “So far, the authorities have been very lenient”. Besides, it educates amateurs and professionals on the legal usage of drones, while talking to the authorities on how to best regulate the industry without stifling its growth.
