Drones in forestry, a match made in the trees…

Drones in forestry is becoming more common all over the world. Drones are used as an affordable, quicker and accurate method of capturing data. Drones are able to monitor tree populations, landscapes and access hard to reach areas. Without the use of drones, these inspections would be timely and costly for organisations.

A decade ago, if researchers used UAVs for their work, they would have had to design their own UAV system or software. Recent advances in commercially available drones and associated technology means that there are options available for a whole range of products.

Together with forest preservation, drones could be used for sustainable commercial logging. This would allow management to conduct tree counts and estimate harvests without having to visit hard-to-reach and inconvenient areas on foot.

This really is just the beginning for the drone and UAV industry, the technology is only going to get bigger and more advance. This really is just the beginning for the drone and UAV industry.
