Drones provide a safe, efficient and cost-effective way to capture high-resolution information across large or difficult-to-access areas. Wildlands uses drone technology to complement traditional field surveys and provide a detailed view of ecological features and change over time.
Our drone services can support:
- High-resolution aerial imagery of vegetation, habitats and wetlands
- Mapping of ecological features and vegetation extent
- Monitoring changes in vegetation and habitat condition
- Surveying areas that are difficult or unsafe to access on foot
- Supporting wetland delineation and boundary assessments
- Monitoring restoration and revegetation projects
- Mapping pest plants and areas of ecological degradation
- Before-and-after monitoring of development or restoration activities
- Collecting spatial data to support GIS analysis and ecological assessments
Drone imagery can provide a valuable additional layer of information, allowing our ecologists to combine detailed aerial observations with on-the-ground surveys and specialist ecological knowledge.
