Since commencing our program, we have worked with a variety of business partners and clients performing aerial investigation, documentation, or mapping for process ponds, landfills/former landfills, riparian areas, reservoirs, stockpiles, refineries, industrial sites, reclamation sites, and mine sites.  Through our program development and UAS projects we have encountered many new and exciting applications.  While aerial imagery and topographic mapping technologies still dominate the industry, we are seeing rapid development in the areas of water sampling, air sampling and geophysical tools deployed from UAS.   

The presentation will include the following: 

• Discuss implementation of UAS for engineering and environmental applications
• Review case studies from engineering projects
• Introduce water sampling, air sampling and geophysical tools
