LightWare saves UAVs from hard to detect power lines
The best technology for detecting overhead power lines is LiDAR. With its small beam divergence, LiDAR can pinpoint the location of overhead lines to ensure they can be avoided.
Flying for WildLife: LIDAR pushing the limits of altimetry and event logging
“We were completely blown away by both the SF30/D and the tablet app that was built for us in such a short period of time to really help us do what we do” – Richard Tennent, Pilot and conservationist, Flying for WildLife.
Flying for WildLife: LIDAR pushing the limits of altimetry and event logging
Flying for WildLife Trust is a non-commercial trust that was born out of a concern for the plight of Zimbabwe’s wildlife, with particular emphasis on elephant and rhino populations. The main objective of the trust is to provide Zimbabwe National Parks Wildlife Management Authority and other stakeholders with regular aerial surveillance and monitoring over wildlife areas and national parks at no cost.
