Description

The GEMEO (Global Environmental Modelling and Earth Observation) group is located at Swansea University’s Department of Geography in the Faculty of Science and Engineering. Its research is focused on understanding how natural and man-made changes affect the biosphere using remote sensing data and environmental models. This current project will involve the detection and classification of coastal litter. We require a ready-to-fly Unmanned-Aircraft Vehicle (UAV) system with fully-integrated co-aligned hyperspectral Visible and Near-Infrared (VNIR) and Short-Wave Infrared (SWIR) (400 – 2500nm) and lidar sensors, along with in-flight data capture and storage system.

Total Quantity or Scope

We require a ready-to-fly Unmanned-Aircraft Vehicle (UAV) system with fully-integrated co-aligned hyperspectral Visible and Near-Infrared (VNIR) and Short-Wave Infrared (SWIR) (400 – 2 500 nm) and lidar sensors, along with in-flight data capture and storage system. To enable data to be captured to high geolocation accuracy, we require the system to be fitted with high performance GNSS/GPS and IMU.
