How drones communicate during forest inventories
KKA group of early-career researchers in the Karl Popper Kolleg “FruitScope: A DroneScope for Smart Agriculture” is working on ways to use drone swarms in agriculture and forestry. Shivi Vats is part of this group. His research focuses on forest inventories using drone swarms, with particular emphasis on communication between the drones: How do they communicate in dense forests where no communications infrastructure is available? How do they transmit the information they collect? And how can the recorded data be compressed as effectively as possible?
