A pilotless drone system for capturing images of an area beneath the drone comprises a drone having a body 12, at least four propulsion means (20, fig 8), a battery power source (34, fig 9), a downwardly pointing camera (24, Fig 9) and data storage means on the drone. The drone also has a control system constraining the drone to a substantially vertical predetermined flight path from a departure point. A portable container 10 for housing the drone includes a connector means for connecting to a power supply system for recharging the battery power source on the drone, a calibration means 16 associated with the container for calibrating linear distance on images captured by camera means mounted on the drone. The container also includes an anemometer 14.
