A drone that not only enjoys as a personal hobby, but also spreads as a business such as aerial photography, inspection, surveying, and remote sensing.I guess many people think "I want to start with a hobby" or "I want to work as a business".
The story of "drone license" can be done.In this article, what kind of properties are in the first place for drones and UAV (unmanned aircraft)?Is it really necessary?Is it unnecessary?What kind of license do you have?I will thoroughly explain Gimon.

The dictionary definition of the word license is "the government allows the government to do a certain thing, and the laws are generally prohibited by law, and only specific people, only specific people."It is said.In other words, it means "allow anyone other than the license holder to perform illegal acts, or a document that indicates it."In a familiar example, there is a "driver's license", which is certified by the Public Safety Commission in each prefecture.Driving a car or the like without having this is a penalty for violations of the law.
On the other hand, there is no government office that directly performs such certifications, and there is no "Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism issuing a drone license based on the aviation law."Therefore, there is no drone license.
However, you may have seen or heard the word "drone license" on the Internet or in general conversations.This means that the certification of a drone's private qualification is called a "drone license."
この記事では、Google検索などで「ドローン免許」という単語がたくさん検索されている現状などを踏まえ、あえて「ドローン免許」という言葉を使いますが、官公庁が発行するドローン免許はまだ日本には存在しない、ということをご認識いただければと思います。
What is the most commonly referred to as a "drone license"?Let's review the basic information.Again, "drone license" is not an accurate usage, so in the following articles, I will enclose it all with "".
Regarding drones, there are qualifications issued by private training organizations certified by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.This is not "the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (government) is directly certified", so be careful.
It is a mechanism that manages group management such as DJI, DPA, and JUIDA, and issues a certificate of qualification and completion by performing actual training by companies and individuals under the umbrella.This is not exactly a license that is certified by the government, such as a driver's license, but is generally called a "drone license."
If you say "I have a drone license" after acquiring this qualification, it may be misleading, so let's say "I have a certified XX qualification".
Even if you read this far, you may not be able to resolve the Gimon saying, "I know that a drone license is a private qualification, but do you need it?"So, let's consider when or not a "drone license (correctly, certificate of private qualification)" is necessary or unnecessary.
Strictly speaking, there is no situation in Japan now that the use of drones will be illegal if you do not get a "drone license".In that sense, it can be said that a drone license is not required.
By the way, there are legal regulations on drone flight location and method.For example, the Aviation Law stipulates that "to fly a drone in a place where people are dense, you need to apply for the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in advance and obtain permission."In addition, it is necessary to obtain approval when flying drones out of sight or flying on the crowds such as festivals, and it is stipulated that they violate them with a finance of up to 500,000 yen.In this way, the regulation of drones based on the law is only about the flight location and method, not "the presence or absence of a license."
* FPV (first -person viewpoint) When flying drones using goggles, radio waves used for video transmission may be subject to the radio wave law, and in that case, "amateur radio license" is required, etc.Since it is not a "drone license", I omit it in this paper.
For example, if you want to do a drone aerial photography as a hobby, you do not need a license.Of course, if you want to use your knowledge and skills systematically after systematically, you have the advantage of obtaining a license, but this is the scope of your efforts and "obligations" based on law."there is no.In addition, there are many people who are actually flying drones for hobby applications and do not have a license, so if you can self -study the knowledge of law and safety operation, "I have to obtain a drone license.Don't say ".
There is no law that requires a license even when working.However, if a company asks an operator, it is often the case that qualifications are given preferential treatment.
Some of the operators have been taking aerial photography since the radio -controlled helicopter era, and some people are well known in the industry and have a total of 2,000 hours, so such careers can work without a license.However, if you want to get a new drone industry and get a corporate project, you can't get an order without any license.
"Drone license" is also a proof of pilot training and maneuvering skills.It is also a proof of safety management, so it is no exaggeration to say that a license is required if you work for a drone.
There are various types of "drone licenses", but what can be said in the industry is issued by a management organization listed in the "Unmanned Aircraft Training and Management Organization List" on the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism website.。
Such organizations are described as follows on the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism website.
Please check the list below to see what kind of organization actually exists.
In addition, the drone certification association, which is published as a training organization, is highly recognized as a proof of knowledge as a classroom qualification.
ドローン業界においてメジャーな「免許」、資格の認定団体と認知されているのはこちらの実技+座学系が3団体、座学オンリー系が1団体です。
The first qualifications should be obtained when drone piloting at work: one of the following three:If you get one from here, you can say that you have been on the starting line to start working as a professional operator.
By the way, if you only obtain these qualifications, it is the same as a "paper driver", and how much you have a practical experience and achievement ahead is the point that the person who actually orders the job considers it.Therefore, these qualifications are at a level that is recognized as acquiring the minimum necessary knowledge and skills, and needs to be a start line.
Let's check the details of each three main practical qualifications.
It is a drone skill certification managed by the world's largest drone maker DJI (Japanese corporation).As a drone manufacturer, it is characterized by a curriculum based on abundant flight data and safety in the course of the company, which has an overwhelming share in Japan.It is also attractive that you can take the course at a low price compared to the following two qualifications.However, it is important to note that students must have a DJI aircraft, and that they cannot bring in other companies' aircraft.

DPA (DPA) is characterized by focusing on flight practical skills, and its strength is a curriculum that allows you to learn the knowledge and experience needed to become a drone operator as a drone operator.Among the three major qualifications, it is the highest license (qualification) with the highest level of knowledge and technology that can be learned, and at the same time, the highest price.

JUIDA's courses are attractive because the knowledge of learning in lectures is systematically and comprehensively organized.By acquiring each qualification, you will be able to prove that you have the knowledge of drone control, safe operation management, and training (instructor operations).Although there is a certain curriculum for practical skills, each school varies depending on each school, so in the case of a project that requires high flight technology, it may be considered not enough for "maneuvering skills".The same is true for other qualifications, but it is desirable to fly independently after graduation and have more than 50 hours of flight experience.

The drone test is only for classroom lectures and there is no practical skill.There are 4th to 1st grade in order of difficulty in question, the most difficult qualification is the first grade.In recent years, we have been training practical skills at partner schools, but basically it is a course to learn the knowledge of using drones safely.It is a recommended qualification if you do not fly as a drone pilot and do basic knowledge to order projects.
In addition, since the advanced test is said to be difficult, if you can pass, you can prove that you have acquired a wide range of knowledge about drones.

If you acquire any of the three major qualifications above DJI Camp, DPA, and Juida, you can say that you have set a start line to become a professional drone pilot.But that alone is just the beginning.The following is a "license (qualification)" that is very advantageous when receiving an order for a job, although the difficulty of comparing with the three qualifications is increased.
In order to spray pesticides in fields and the like, it is necessary to register an aircraft for aerial spraying in the Agriculture and Fisheries Association, an external organization of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, in order to spray pesticides in fields.In addition, by submitting a "business plan" before the aerial spray is performed, it is possible to spray pesticides using drones.There are many steps required, but it is not particularly difficult than other licenses.It is recommended as a "license" to obtain as a step -up to receive orders with higher unit prices after gaining some drone operators.
In addition, since there are many farmers around the area where they work, or if they are involved in agriculture and have knowledge of pesticides, etc., they should be actively aimed at acquiring pesticides.It can be said.

This course is sponsored by Hiroichi Jinkawa, one of Japan's leading drone aerial photography professionals.Propirot practical tests are known as the most difficult in Japan, and it is difficult enough to drop even pilots who have more than 1,000 hours of flight experience.Therefore, it is possible to prove that the qualification of a propirot has an outstanding maneuvering skill among drone pilots.If you want to receive orders for high -end projects related to aerial photography, you may want to try acquisition.

It is a qualification certified by a domestic aircraft manufacturer.When using a drone for inspection, surveying, aerial photography, some clients may be required to use domestic aircraft, so for those who aim to be a drone pilot who aims for such projects.It is a recommended qualification.At present, there is no strong demand, but if you bet on the possibility of increasing the need for projects using domestic aircraft in the future, aim for this qualification!
