Subterranean Mine Inspection Using the Prometheus Re‐Configurable Drone

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper describes the design, development, and real‐world testing of an autonomous drone for subterranean exploration, known as “Prometheus.” Driven by requirements from industry that the drone be able to be deployed through areas of restricted access, Prometheus was designed to be directly deployed through a 150 mm aperture.

Software to Support Remote Sensing of River Discharge Based on Critical Flow Theory

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water resource management requires accurate observations of streamflow but standard field methods for measuring river discharge (Q$$ Q $$) can be costly and hazardous for equipment and personnel. Remote sensing has become a viable alternative, but many image‐based techniques require field data for calibration, and depth and velocity can seldom

Quantifying aboveground herbaceous biomass in grassy ecosystems: a comparison of field and high‐resolution UAV‐LiDAR approaches

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The abundance of herbaceous vegetation in grassy ecosystems—which cover >25% of the world's land surface—is highly variable and impacts key ecological processes including carbon sequestration and support for grazing wildlife and livestock. Here, we present a method for using high‐resolution, UAV‐borne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) to estimate ...

DuckNet: an open‐source deep learning tool for waterfowl species identification in UAV imagery

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Using drones with thermal‐RGB sensors and a deep learning model (RetinaNet with ResNet‐50), we surveyed non‐breeding waterfowl across restored wetlands in the Mississippi Alluvial Valley. Our model, DuckNet, achieved high accuracy and offers an open‐source, customizable tool for automated waterfowl detection to support conservation monitoring ...
