  • 1.  Drone Use

    Posted 05-21-2026 01:37 PM

    Hello everyone!

    We are looking at doing some drone work to help improve the ADA accessibility aspect of our hiking tour experience. We are exploring the possibility of purchasing a drone and/or GoPro-type camera equipment for museum and tour purposes.

    Has anyone here purchased equipment like this for museum, heritage, tourism, or educational use? If so:

    • What did you purchase?
    • What do you recommend?
    • What worked well for you?
    • Are there any issues or things we should look out for?
    • Any tips for beginners or for creating accessible virtual experiences?

    We would greatly appreciate any input, recommendations, or lessons learned.

    Thank you so much in advance!

    Hi Kristy!

    I create a variety of multimedia for historic sites and commissions using drones. Would be happy to help. Shoot me an email at derick@fishbowlmedia.co and I can point you in the right direction. I will also be at the Expo tomorrow 5/22 if you want to meet up.

    Best,

    Derick Fischer
