Certain embodiments are described that provide a method for obtaining a registration point for a map. A drone is equipped with a GPS receiver and is flown to, and lands on, a physical location corresponding to a designated point on the map. While the drone is at the physical location, it receives GPS data using the GPS receiver for a period of time sufficient to allow convergence of the GPS data to obtain a GPS coordinate. The GPS coordinate is then associated with the designated point on the map, to generate the registration point for the map.
