My Approach

Transforming how we work together to create ecosystem-based information

  • Building Capacity & Understanding

    I firmly believe that we need to work to strengthening people’s technological skills to allow us to collaboratively work together to better understand & create holistic information for our environmental challenges as well as allow for the development of effective ‘locally-relevant’ solutions.

  • Mapping & Monitoring Techiques

    I have extensively research and developed a comprehensive drone mapping and monitoring methodology using off-the-shelf drone technologies so that you can quickly and easily plan and conduct mapping surveys to create accurate mapping data to aid your planning, monitoring and management decisions.

  • Create & Share Information

    My unique 'Participatory UAS' Approach will allow you to effectively use your drone mapping data to map and create understandable information but also how to leverage automated analytic dashboards & reporting tools to summarize and remotely share using web-mapping and social media platforms.

Insights: Drone Training

Drones for Environmental Management

“Dr. Baldwin is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Her teaching approach was methodical, covering the background information on UAVs, their usefulness in research and the reasons for flight regulations. She was patient as we learned the basics of pre-flight preparations and flight with UAVs and was very effective at teaching our team the differences between and benefits of the available software. I would recommend training with her to anyone interested in using drones for research.”

Instructor Bio

I’m a marine ecologist, GIS educator, and commercial drone pilot with over 20 years of experience in environmental mapping, monitoring and training across the Caribbean, California and beyond.

As the Founder and Director of Marine Spatial Information Solutions (MarSIS) Inc., I’ve built a career around one core mission: empowering people to use participatory approaches together with drones & geospatial tools to make data-driven, real-world impact.

Through my Training Academy, I’ve taught hundreds of individuals and organizations how to safely & professionally operate drones, conduct drone mapping missions, collect accurate environmental data and analyze and share their results for agriculture, fisheries, conservation and disaster management. My Participatory-UAS approach brings together science, technology and collaboration — ensuring that every learner, regardless of background, can build confidence and contribute to smarter environmental decision-making.

Whether you’re an individual seeking new skills or an organization building technical capacity, my goal is to make drone technology accessible, practical and transformative. Together, we can learn how to use technology tools to help us protect our planet and strengthen the communities that depend on it.
