Hundreds of Brisbane residents have supported designated spaces to launch and land their drones, prompting Brisbane City Council to make dedicated drone zones across the city permanent.

Demand from drone enthusiasts led the council to conduct a six-month trial of the zones from December 2017.

The trial was an Australian first.

The council's environment, parks and sustainability chairman David McLachlan said the council provided launch and landing sites at 10 Brisbane parks to accommodate the growing number of drone enthusiasts.
