Unmanned aerial vehicles, also known as drones, offer a wide range of possible applications in our field of research. Whether for recording biophysical parameters, micro-scale agrometeorological data or analysing terrain surfaces, we currently have 3 multicopter platforms and various sensors available for our projects and theses. For imaging procedures, we have a wide range of sensors available, from simple aerial photographs (RGB) to multispectral images. We also use a LiDAR system to analyse terrain surfaces. Since 2021, we have also been able to carry out point measurements with a UAV-mounted anemometer. Please contact our colleagues Detlef Thürkow or Mike Teucher if you have any enquiries about using the equipment for research and dissertations.
