Description
This imagery was captured September 20, 2015 for the Hawaiian Monk Seal Research Program. Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) are being tested to assess their effectiveness for capturing images of seals and other wildlife. In addition to single photographs, an orthomosaic of Southeast Island was created as part of a mapping exercise over the island using an APH-22 hexacopter. The mosaic output is a GeoTIFF in WGS84 UTM Zone 1N. Mission support: Charles Littnan NOAA, Jessica Lopez Bohlander NOAA, LT Michael Marino NOAA UAS planning and flight: Kathryn Sweeney NOAA, Don LeRoi of Aerial Imaging Solutions Map compilation: Joel Stocker for AIS.
