The association “Actions pour le climat et la planète à Cessenon” & Drones for Earth have joined forces!

It all started on a whale watching tour in Iceland (to learn more about this adventure have a look at Kiki the Monkey travel blog) and ended with planting trees in Cessenon-sur-Orb, France.

While searching for Humpback whales in the Arctic Sea, a member of Drones for Earth, Aurélie, met Susan and Drew; an Australian-American couple that has had 1000 lives and will have so many more. These nature lovers are retired and live in a charming village, Cessenon-sur-Orb, in France.

Susan and friends have created a new association “Actions pour le climat et la planète à Cessenon”. Its mission is to plant trees, to create a small forest to help improve the biodiversity of the area, absorb carbon dioxide, create oxygen and serve the community as a quiet relaxing retreat from their busy lives.

This year Drones For Earth was in the swiss valley Arolla for their annual members outing. Again we taught each other the useful and necessary skills for completing the challenging missions we do, plus test our equipment to it’s limits, while of course having a good time! 🙂

Here the processed output:

Mapping again the entire 100km2 of Kuzikus and this time in only 4 days!

Still the goal here in this wildlife reserve is to find faster and better ways to do wildlife management.

Yes, you are reading correctly. Namibia it was again! This time with a team made up of Drones For Earth, WildTrack, and all the team at Kuzikus Wildlife Reserve where we all met.

With great advancements in technology in the last two years the bar was set high: map-process-train AI – apply AI to detect tracks not only of different animal species, but also between different animals within the same species.

As a small side project, the entire 100sqkm of the reserve was mapped at 4cm resolution.
