*"A customer says that someone on the phone said 'a drone picture' and the company denies it, saying they use other imaging." * Customer could be mistaken, whoever was on the phone may not know that "drone" covers things from 737 Recon Drone to a $10 aliexpress quadcopter.

I'll bet $50 it was either a high altitude drone or a satellite image bought from an imaging company, as they've been doing for at least 20 years, and not some quadcopter flying just above his yard.
