Track: Petroleum
Authors: Eng. Waleed Roy

By using fixed-wing UAVs and Drone2Map, we are capturing and analyzing the most recent aerial images in the protected areas of Kuwait. These images are helping to monitor, estimate and mitigate the environmental damages in protected areas. Drone2Map for ArcGIS was used for processing aerial images and spatial analysis techniques used for quantifying the damages and proposing the mitigation measures.
