Authors: Ron Behrendt, Cody Benkelman
World Wildlife Fund, in partnership with Behron and Associates, the Fort Belknap Fish and Wildlife Department, Idaho State University, Topcon and Esri, recently tested the application of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) and high resolution imagery to monitor black-footed ferret habitat in Montana. This presentation will review the collection experience and the workflow from raw imagery through GIS analysis and dissemination.
