UAS Mapping and Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
This class focuses on the principles and techniques of using drones for mapping, surveying, and generating high-quality spatial data. Participants will learn about photogrammetry, remote sensing, and how to integrate drone data into Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for accurate and detailed mapping of conservation areas, habitats, and environmental changes.
Safety and Emergency Procedures
Instruction on safety protocols, emergency responses, and risk mitigation while operating drones in conservation areas.
Search and Rescue Drones
Teaching how drones can be used for search and rescue operations in conservation areas.
UAS Ranger Support and Wildlife Protection
This class is designed to educate rangers and conservation field teams on how to effectively collaborate with drones in their daily activities. Participants will learn how drones can enhance ranger patrols, wildlife monitoring, anti-poaching efforts, and surveillance for protected areas. It will also cover safety protocols, data collection methods, and the integration of drone technology […]
UAS Regulations and Compliance
A class to educate staff on local and national regulations, airspace restrictions, and the legal aspects of using drones for conservation work.
Data Management and Analysis
Covering the collection, processing, and analysis of data obtained through drones, including GIS (Geographic Information Systems) integration.
Wildlife Monitoring with Drones
Focusing on techniques for using drones to monitor and study wildlife without disturbing them.
Vegetation and Habitat Mapping
Training on drone-based techniques for mapping and monitoring vegetation, habitats, and land use.
LiDAR Technology and Applications
Exploring the use of LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) for 3D mapping, topography analysis, and habitat assessment.
Water Quality Assessment
Focusing on using drones to assess water quality, monitor water bodies, and detect pollution or other environmental issues.
