Course programme

Course structure Theoretical concepts will be covered in the first two days. Hands on practical case studies based on environmental applications will be used to illustrate theoretical concepts.
What you will learn

This five day course will cover the principles of UAV flight control (theory, practice and practical demo), image processing (data capture and analysis) and data interpretation (using data from different case studies). The course will strengthen current knowledge of UAVs for environmental science whilst also addressing wider relevant key elements on data capture, analysis and interpretation.

Overall, this course consolidates the application of UAV technology by introducing environmental professionals and researchers to state-of-the art technology for environmental monitoring - a key skill gap identified by the .
