2. Drone technology is increasingly
being used
for conservation & environmental
protection work
Since these systems offer quick,
easy and cost-effective aerial
imagery, on demand

12. With the eBee drone we could
easily identify and map
geomorphological features in
the New Zealand Subantarctics,
which due to thick vegetation
and a lack of satellite coverage
would have been impossible
otherwise. The eBee's low noise
and 'natural' appearance was
also crucial,
since this meant it didn't disturb
local bird colonies

13. than taking shots manually
from manned aircraft in fact
we realised we could buy a full
drone system for what two
aerial surveys would have cost
us in the past! We expect the
eBee to become a solid and
very important component
of our research program as we

14. Rotary (helicopter) drone systems are best
suited to monitoring and charting smaller
areas, enabling operators to capture video
imagery and respond to this feedback live
15. -wing UAVs such as
eBee allow users to
map larger areas in a single
autonomous flight
