As drones become more affordable and regulations around their use clearer, news organisations and individual film-makers are beginning to incorporate them more widely into their work.

Drones can be used both for filming and gathering data for stories and documentaries, but it can be hard to find the information you need to stay on the right side of the law when flying your drone, particularly if working on projects that span a number of countries.

To help potential drone pilots learn more about regulation, Storyhunter published a guide to commercial drone regulations around the world, featuring flying advice as well as lists of countries where drones are banned, or where a license is needed to fly.
