Aircraft (A/C )
A device intended for or capable of being utilized for flight in the air
Authorization of UAV Special Flight
The inspection conducted to verify whether a special flight approval application, submitted to the Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, complies with the special flight safety standards
Barometric Altimeter
an instrument that is used to measure air pressure and predict changes in the weather

drone
An unmanned flying object that is either autonomously controlled by an autonomous navigation device or remotely controlled using wireless transmission
drone journalism
Collecting data by entering hard-to-reach areas using unmanned aerial vehicles or helicopters to capture photos or videos, which journalists find difficult to access, and reporting based on that.
drone photogrammetry
A surveying method using an unmanned aerial vehicle equipped with a high-resolution camera to capture overlapping images of the Earth's surface, allowing for the creation of orthophotos.
Frequency
The number of complete cycles of events that occur or recur per unit time
Geofencing
A feature that establishes an electronic network to prevent drones from exiting user-defined boundaries or zones
Gimbal
A device that assists in stabilizing cameras or other equipment to enable smooth and steady filming without shaking or trembling
Ground Control Station (GCS)
A device for controlling drones from the ground
Gyroscope
A structure where two axes, each rotating perpendicular to the other, can freely rotate
Hexacopter
an unmanned helicopter having six rotors
hovering
The drone hovering in place in mid-air
Inertial Navigation System (INS)
That would be a "magnetic compass" used to indicate the direction an aircraft intends to go, considering factors such as wind direction and other environmental elements
Landing Gear
The drone's legs, designed to reduce the impact and friction of vital components during landing
Landing Skid
As the underside of helicopters or drones, it serves to protect the aircraft from impacts during landings
Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR )
A device that emits laser pulses and measures the distance to objects by detecting the reflection of light from surrounding objects, thereby accurately mapping the surroundings
Mean Sea Level(MSL)
the sea level halfway between the mean levels of high and low water
Notice to Airmen (NOTAM)
A notice disseminated via transmission to provide information about aviation facilities, operations, procedures, or the status, changes, or newly introduced risks related to aviation facilities, operations, procedures, or risks
