About the program
As technology evolves, we find new ways to address issues in society and nature. Using UAS (unmanned aerial systems) we can address complex problems like transport planning, climate change and biodiversity management. These drones allow us to collect many forms of data, often in dangerous locations such as unstable lands and the tops of forests.
With the use of drones, we engage students, delivering an informative and interactive workshop discussing the impact that geographers, planners and spatial scientists have on the world.
Best suited to the:
- Environmental Science TASC curriculum (Ecologically Sustainable Management of the Environment)
- Science Year 10 Australian Curriculum
- Science Understanding - Earth and Space Sciences: Global Systems and Human Impact
- Science as a Human Endeavour: Advances in scientific understanding often rely on technological advances
The University of Tasmania is committed to creating diverse, inclusive, and accessible educational experiences. Please let us know when registering how we can best support your needs.
