My Signature P-UAS Approach

Transforming How We Work Together to Create Environmental Information

  • Building Capacity & Shared Understanding

    I firmly believe that by strengthening people’s technological skills, we can work together to better understand and collaboratively create more holistic environmental information for our challenges. I am dedicated to enabling the development of effective, locally-relevant solutions through shared knowledge.

  • Participatory Mapping & Monitoring Techniques

    My participatory drone mapping and monitoring methodology workflow has been developed using 'off-the-shelf' drones and information communication technologies. With my training, you can quickly learn how to plan and conduct drone surveys and easily create comprehensive mapping and geospatial data to address your environmental needs.

  • Collaboratively Creating & Widely Sharing Information

    Through my signature 'Participatory-UAS' drone mapping approach, you'll be empowered to create understandable information and effectively use your drone's mapping data, as well as learn to collect local knowledge and leverage ICTs to analyze, summarize, and widely share your produced information using web-mapping and social media platforms.
