Conservation drones are low-cost, autonomous, and operator-friendly unmanned aerial vehicles that can be used for surveying, mapping, and monitoring both habitat and biodiversity. They are fast becoming a valuable complement to ground-based surveys and satellite imagery for a wide range of ecological and conservation applications. The authors pioneered the use of conservation drones for the purpose of monitoring orangutan populations in Southeast Asia. They subsequently founded conservationdrones.org to share their knowledge of building and using drones with colleagues in the wider environmental community. This website has proved highly popular and this book aims to further build capacity to use drones and inspire others to adapt emerging technologies for practical conservation. Conservation Drones is suitable for graduate level students, professional researchers, practitioners, and managers in the fields of conservation biology and ecology."--Page 4 of cover. 000916264 650_0 $$aEnvironmental impact analysis$$xTechnological innovations. 000916264 650_0 $$aBiodiversity$$xMonitoring$$xTechnological innovations. 000916264 650_0 $$aDrone aircraft$$xScientific applications. 000916264 650_0 $$aBiodiversity conservation$$xTechnological innovations. 000916264 650_0 $$aBiodiversity$$xRemote sensing. 000916264 650_0 $$aBiodiversity conservation$$xEvaluation. 000916264 7001_ $$aKoh, Lian Pin,$$d1976-$$eauthor. 000916264 85200 $$bgen$$hQH541.15.M64$$iW53$$i2018 000916264 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:916264$$pGLOBAL_SET 000916264 980__ $$aBIB 000916264 980__ $$aBOOK
