Josh Hellon shows how drone technology is being used to help with the Trust's conservation work. The talk will cover how the Trust map tree species at Brampton Wood, heather at Cooper's Hill, wetland at the Great Fen, and scrub cover at numerous sites. Josh will try to dispel a few myths about drones and show how they can be safely used to give us a birds eye view of nature reserves. The talk will also cover some of the other technological advancements that are helping with conservation work. 

This is a virtual event held as a zoom webinar. Please register to attend.

As a webinar attendee, you can view the speakers' and hosts' videos and see their presentations. The Q&A facility allows you to engage with the speakers after the talk. You do not need a camera yourself, as attendee videos are not shown. More information on how to join a webinar is available here.
