Drone technology is changing how conservationists do their work, presenting novel research methods and new perspectives.
From wildlife tracking and landscape-level monitoring to population counts and behaviour observation, drone technology is changing how conservationists do their work, presenting novel research methods and new perspectives. Our panel will discuss what drones have allowed them to do that was previously not possible, and talk about how drone technology might further support their fields of study in the future.
The adjoining Dish Cafe will be open before and after this event for coffee and drinks. Nibbles provided after the talk to encourage the conversation to continue.
Panel:
Jake Edwards-Ingle - University of Otago, Department of Marine Science
Mike Hilton - University of Otago, School of Geography
Jo Monks - University of Otago, Department of Zoology
Chris Muller - Altitude Conservation
Moderator: Professor Dame Juliet Gerrard
