This week, a workshop organized by Sebastian Buchelt within our EFRE project MainPro brought together students, researchers, and interested project partners to explore modern UAV technologies. The workshop took place in vineyards close to Würzburg and gave the participants the chance to get hands-on experience with the latest drone technologies and learn how UAVs are being used to collect high-resolution geospatial data..
A particular highlight was the live demonstration of a LiDAR-equipped drone and a terrestrial laser scanner (TLS), where students could watch detailed point clouds being generated in real time and see how these technologies work in practice.
Beyond the demonstrations, the workshop provided plenty of opportunities for discussion, questions, and exchange between students, researchers, and professionals. By combining practical exercises with expert insights, the event offered an engaging introduction to the rapidly evolving field of drone-based geospatial data collection.
