UAS data acquisition in Würzburg city

November 8, 2022

For a small part of the city of Würzburg covering buildings and city trees Lidar (ALS, TLS), thermal and multispectral UAS-based data was acquired, lead by Dr. Mirjana Bevanda and our colleagues Antonio Castaneda and Jakob Schwalb-Willmann with the help of many staff member of our Research Hub.

The data acquisition took a whole day with various launches and different sensors and was managed with different UAS pilots in different positions and various helping hands for managing safety issues, spontaneous visitors and interested public. The results are quite impressive and will be used for future urban research ranging from urban canyons and heat islands up to urban trees and forest.
