Google bought drones for shooting terrain
German magazine Wirtschaftswoche (“Economy Week”) writes that the local company Microdrones delivered the first supply of Google’s own unmanned aerial vehicles. Reportedly, miniature drones can operate fully automatically, flying around the route along GPS coordinates and landing on their own at a given location.

The director of Microdrones in an interview with the magazine said that he hopes for a long-term cooperation with Google. According to him, drones are great for getting more relevant photos of the area, which can be used in Google Earth and Google Maps.
