About

Drones are subject to very different rules in the two countries. In Turkey, a vehicle license, licensed pilot, professional applicator, and prior permission for every spraying application are required. In the EU, aerial spraying is prohibited, and drones fall under this ban; however, mapping and monitoring are not included in this prohibition.

  • SHGM pilot licenses, vehicle classes, and IHHATTYS registration
  • Informing beekeepers and the headman before spraying
  • Mapping flight planning, overlap, ground control points
  • Discussion of the omnibus proposal and low-risk drone exemption in the EU
  • Drone use in academia and flight simulation module

Legislation is changing rapidly. When sharing a rule, state its source and date.
