ren will speak about her group’s work with
UAVs in a variety of settings, showing how
these platforms are being used to generate high resolution models for answering
questions about environmental change.
14.00-14.30 Topography UAV
Applications
Enrique Plaza Baez, Project Manager, CONYCA
This case study session will draw upon our
experience of using UAVs within topography. Discussion will focus upon key advantages of utilizing UAV technology versus

the results obtained.
14.30-15.00 RAPSODY
Robert Whitehouse, Business Development Director, TEKEVER
The European project RAPSODY, led by the
TEKEVER Group, will introduce, for the first
time, unmanned aerial systems in maritime surveillance missions within Europe.
The RAPSODY Project, led by TEKEVER, will
test the use of unmanned aerial systems
in a maritime context through real-world
demonstration of two scenarios: search
and rescue missions; and pollution and oil
spill monitoring. The systems will operate
over the Atlantic Ocean, the North Sea and
the Mediterranean Sea.
15.00-15.30 How English Heritage
and Historic England are increasingly using UAVs across multiple
heritage applications
Paul Bryan, Geospatial Imaging Manager,
English Heritage/Historic England
English Heritage have been using UAV
platforms since 2008 to acquire low-level
aerial imagery of sites and buildings across
its estate. Applications include site presentation, condition monitoring, archaeological investigation and most recently
landscape survey, facilitated by increased
availability of modern, affordable photogrammetric software packages capable of
deriving detailed three dimensional data
from image sets with multiple overlap.
