In the summer of 2020, I rented a drone and took photos and videos of Magdeburg, Germany. The photos are now all published on Wikimedia Commons and some serve to illustrate Wikipedia articles. I intend to use the videos as decorative features in the videos of course in engineering fluid dynamics. In the meantime, I publish them here, under a CC-by license: this means you are free to use them for all purposes, including commercial purposes, as long as you credit me (Olivier Cleynen).
It was a lot of fun playing with the drone, and capture shots of my beloved city. The files linked here are 2160p H264 videos embedded in Matroska containers, usually less than a minute long.
