Temperature Extraction Scheme for Composite Insulator Core Rod Sheath of Overhead Transmission Lines Based on Oriented Bounding Boxes

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) inspection of overhead transmission line composite insulators allows for the rapid acquisition of large amounts of infrared images of insulators in service, which can be used to analyse their operational status. However, efficiently and accurately analysing these images remains a challenge.

Unmanned ground vehicle

open access: yes, 2017
In the broadest sense, an Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) is any piece of mechanized equipment that moves across the surface of the ground and serves as a means for carrying or transporting something, but explicitly does not carry a human being. The main parts of UGV are: sensors, platform, control, human machine interface, communication and system ...

Climatic–Anthropogenic Synergy Drives Escalating Minimum Area Requirements and Connectivity‐Protection Mismatch in a Karst‐Endemic Primate

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Climate change and anthropogenic activities drive antagonistic degradation of landscape connectivity for endangered François’ langur (1987–2024), causing 48.8% habitat loss, north‐south fragmentation, and centroid migration (1.2 km/yr). Despite protected areas buffering connectivity, static management fails dynamic priority habitats; we propose ...

sampley: A Python package for sampling visual survey data

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Visual surveys are a common method of obtaining data for ecological studies, including studies that develop models (e.g. species distribution models). In the case of transect or non‐transect line surveys, data must often be partitioned into spatiotemporal units (i.e. samples) before being modelled.

In situ aerial bioacoustic monitoring from extremely noisy drone recordings

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Aerial bioacoustic monitoring has the potential to transform biodiversity surveys by enabling rapid acoustic sampling across large and inaccessible habitats. However, its application from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has remained limited because strong rotor self‐noise overwhelms target sounds such as bird vocalisations, compromising the ...
