1 UAS Unmanned Aircra: Systems in Forest Management
2 UAS What are they? Unmanned Aircra: Systems (UAS) fill niche built upon military UAV technologies Most common plahorms Fixed Wing Rotorcra: Primary uses Aerial photography Video Surveillance Thermal imaging
3 Niche SoluMon Not a Complete SoluMon UAS does not replace convenmonal aerial photography/satellite imagery Cost effecmve for small areas where tradimonal methods are cost- prohibimve Not recommended for large scale image collecmon Safe alternamve with minimal environmental impact Produces higher resolumon imagery Can collect imagery even on cloudy days Copyright SRC 2014
4 Sample UAS Aircra: and Common UAS Terminology Aircra& Glossary of Terms MAVinci Sirius 1 Aeryon SkyRanger Trimble UX5 Draganfly sensefly ebee Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) Unmanned Aircra: Systems (UAS) Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Unmanned Aerial Surveyor (UAS) Drone Fixed Wing ConvenMonal airplane Flying wing Rotorcra: Helicopter, Quadcopter/Hexacopter Special Flight OperaMons CerMficate (SFOC) Above Ground Level (AGL) Ground Surface Distance (GSD)
5 Fixed Wing vs. Rotorcra: PROS Covers more area per flight Best for photographing larger areas Flies faster Can glide to landing in emergency Typically flies longer per charge CONS Takeoff/landing restricmons Fixed payloads PROS Can launch from confined spaces Best for video surveillance Can hover and fly at slow speeds Many have interchangeable payload opmons CONS Typically shorter flight Mmes Flies slower 100% Mechanical li: Cannot hover Both UAS technologies have dismnct advantages/ disadvantages over the other. One size does not fit all.
6 SRC Uses a Fixed- Wing UAS MAVinci Sirius 1 UAS Mini aerial surveyor 1.6m wingspan 3kg takeoff weight 55min max flight Mme 1.6cm Maximum image ground resolumon
7 FP InnovaMons Uses a Rotorcra: UAS Aeyron SkyRanger Quadcopter VTOL Small (1m) and light weight (2.4kg) Portable (foldable) Easy to pilot 50 minute endurance 3km Range
8 Common Products Produced Using a UAS Orthophotos DEM/DSM Thermal Imaging Volumetrics Video Point Clouds Camera Frames/Stereo Copyright SRC 2014
9 Comparing Standard Imagery to UAS Imagery Truck images displayed at the same relamve size but based on different image sources and resolumons ConvenMonal Aerial Photography 60cm High ResoluMon Aerial Photography 15cm UAS Aerial Photography 1.6cm
10 Point Clouds A set of data points In a 3 dimensional coordinates (x,y,z) Colour of each point can be included LIDAR and 3D scanning create point clouds Orthophoto image processing creates point clouds too Lets you look at imagery in a new way Virtual site tours, logismcs planning, volumetrics, etc. Copyright SRC 2014
11 RegulaMons and Constraints UAS treated similar to manned aircra: UAS cannot exceed 400 (122m) AGL Must maintain line of site (~500m) UAS cannot fly over built- up areas or inhabited buildings Must coordinate with ATC when close to aerodromes UAS flights require Special Flight OperaMons CerMficate (SFOC) SFOCs submimed prior to flight Can delay flights Blanket SFOCs for established pilots In future, pilots will require a license to operate These regulamons apply to commercial/business use of fixed- wing and rotorcra: UAS (including research/training)
12 Forestry ApplicaMons for UAS Block InspecMons AcMviMes Planning Compliance audits Boundary Mapping IdenMfy features easily missed during field cruise Document sites with pictures and orthophotos Live video focus on features of interest
13 Forestry ApplicaMons for UAS Ground Surveys (Area- based) AcMviMes RegeneraMon/FTG Surveys Soil disturbance mapping Harvest boundaries and silvicultural treatments Individual tree mapping (stand dynamics) Highly accurate method of assessment Best in locamons where sites are unsafe Challenging for some types of measurements Understorey/lateral features Copyright SRC 2014
14 Forestry ApplicaMons for UAS Ground Surveys (volume- based) AcMviMes Roadside/mill log inventories Chip/hog piles Accurate method of calculamng volume on the ground (volumetrics) 3D point clouds generated using so:ware Lateral measurements challenging Copyright SRC 2014
15 Forestry ApplicaMons for UAS Fire Hazard DetecMon AcMviMes Prescribed Burn Hog fuel hot spot detecmon Green Tree patch mapping Heat monitoring difficult on the ground IR Sensors on UAS ideal for smaller areas Safely reach inaccessible areas Manned aircra: should be used for large areas
16 UAS Benefits OperaMonal planning and repormng at the block level Timely, low cost for small areas Can be used for Planning Control Compliance PrescripMons Safety Can fly under cloud Small Area mapping made cost effecmve
17 UAS NegaMves Not for large areas Expensive for large areas Many flights needed Eyes on aircra:/line of site Weather Significant post- processing Transport Canada SFOCs Trained pilots Planning
18 Target Users Forest Industry and governments Visual inspecmons Automated applicamons Forestry Consultants Extension of current remote sensing applicamons More complex data processing Services for industry/government with no in- house UAS Research OrganizaMons Develop new uses/tools Copyright SRC 2014
19 UAS At FPI What is Happening? ROI exercise and Tech review Purchased rotorcra: in 2014 Work with industrial/provincial partners to define best applicamons ValidaMon Trials Visual inspecmon/reconnaissance RegeneraMon success/stocking Harvest mapping Wood pile/chip volumes PotenMal applicamon of IR Sensors Assistance for wood bidding Copyright SRC 2014
20 UAS At SRC What is Happening? Purchased fixed wing in 2013 Support for internal projects Island Forests Management Uranium mine reclamamon Providing client flight services Flight Management GPS Ground Control Image Processing Test different ways to use UAS Educate industry/government Future plans to test different sensors
