Scene Investigation from the Sky: Current and Future Uses of Unoccupied Aerial Systems in Forensic Investigations

open access: yesWIREs Forensic Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
Police drone technology could be utilized to support forensic scene investigations. If the challenges of implementing new technologies can be overcome, drones could improve operational efficiency, interpretation issues and add investigative value in the courtroom. ABSTRACT Unoccupied aerial systems (UAS; otherwise known as Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAV)

DEM Generation from Fixed-Wing UAV Imaging and LiDAR-Derived Ground Control Points for Flood Estimations

open access: yesSensors, 2019
Geospatial products, such as digital elevation models (DEMs), are important topographic tools for tackling local flood studies. This study investigates the contribution of LiDAR elevation data in DEM generation based on fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle

Building‐Scale Flood Hazard Modelling for Risk Assessment of Cultural Heritage

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Flooding is among the most frequent natural hazards threatening cultural heritage sites, yet current flood hazard studies often operate at urban or regional scales. While building‐scale damage models exist, they generally rely on flood depth inputs from large‐scale inundation models, inputs that may fail to capture the internal complexity of ...

Mapping River Bed Topography in Whitewater Rapids Using Bathymetric LiDAR

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 886-900, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Bathymetric LiDAR captures river topography efficiently for clear and shallow water, but for mountain rivers, whitewater rapids still pose challenges. This study proposes a novel method to enable the extraction of bottom returns specifically in turbulent whitewater sections.

Implications of surveyor accuracy in bird flight height estimation for wind farm collision risk assessment

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April/June 2026.
Maps annotated with the height and distance of surrounding landscape features were provided to surveyors estimating bird flight height during ornithological vantage point surveys. Our results suggest that annotated maps can significantly reduce variability in the surveyors' estimates, improving accuracy and collision risk predictions.

Linking Remotely Sensed Hydromorphological Conditions With Biological Observations to Estimate Salmon Spawning Capacity

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 3, April/May 2026.
ABSTRACT Performing ecohydraulic assessments of salmon habitat is essential for planning and evaluating management actions. Current in situ and modelling approaches, although accurate, can be time‐consuming and expensive, which limits the areal extent of the study.

A new technique based on mini-UAS for estimating water and bottom radiance contributions in optically shallow waters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The mapping of nearshore bathymetry based on spaceborne radiometers is commonly used for QC ocean colour products in littoral waters. However, the accuracy of these estimates is relatively poor with respect to those derived from Lidar systems due in part
