"Applied Course on Uavs for for environmental monitoring"
Matera - 27/31 July - Rione San Rocco
The University of Basilicata organizes a 5-day shortcourse entitled “APPLIED COURSE ON UAVs FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING” held at Matera - Rione San Rocco. The Summer Course is intended for post-graduate students and post-docs interested in environmental monitoring, ecohydrological modelling, and use of geomorphological tools. The course will focus on applying UAVs (both fixed and rotary wing) to measure and repeatedly monitor vegetation state, land cover, surface morphology, river systems, and flood plains. Students will be directly involved in field experiences that aim to develop practical skills in using this fast growing technology to improve environmental modeling.
