Basic data for this project
Description
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) as highly flexible and low-cost sensor platform provide new opportunities of data acquisition for various environmental- and geoscientific purposes (e.g. environmental monitoring, forestry, geobase data etc.). Its spatial and temporal versatility due to small size, low weight and little operating costs also makes these UAVS an attractive tool for monitoring and observation purposes in precision agriculture. The ifgicopter group of the Institute for Geoinformatics is working on applications of UAVs in the various fields of geoinformation science. In particular, two different UAV systems (microdrones and mikrokopter) form the starting point of the ongoing research. The current areas of work and research topics of the ifgicopter group cover real-time data processing, near-infrared aerial photography and high-precision positioning.
