Klerksdorp from the air
Klerksdorp is a goldfields city, and old mining shapes the land around it. Drone operators are asked to survey tailings dams and mine dumps near Stilfontein and Orkney, inspect shaft headgear, and map land for rehabilitation or reprocessing. Further out, maize and sunflower farms around Hartbeesfontein and Ottosdal ask for crop mapping and spraying. The Vaal River runs past Orkney and draws anglers and filmers. Klerksdorp's own airport, PC Pelser, lies close to the city and limits flying over parts of town. Winters are cold, dry and dusty, with wind lifting fine grit off the dumps, and summer storms arrive fast with hail and lightning.
Typical camera drones requests in the area come from:
- Mines, plants and utilities: thermal and visual inspections of plants, stacks, conveyors, power lines and tanks
- Farmers and growers: mapping and spraying drones, crop and dam checks, and fence and game counts from the air
- Builders, engineers and installers: progress flights, site surveys, stockpile volumes and roof and solar inspections
