Short description: If the drone would fly automatically over the previously mapped area, record data and analyse if there has been any changes and then either process the data to be strored in the GIS or give signal to mappers so that the area can be explored more specifically.

Market potential: The procedure could be utilized in every organisation maintaining map data. There are 309 municipalities in Finland only so the market would be big.

Timing: There are no exact time requirements but the sooner the better. Development can be done by one part of the process at a time.
