#47 Breathalysing Whales: Drones Revisited
An update on our Drones episode from January 2019 where we
learn about new uses for unmanned aerial vehicles, and celebrate being
shortlisted for three awards in the Publisher Podcast Awards held in London in March
2020.
No-one knows how many penguins are in the Antarctic, and
last year we discovered that thanks to the use of drones this is set to change,
as scientists are using these unmanned aerial vehicles to fly over colonies of Chinstrap,
Adelie and Gentoos. One year on it is not just penguins that are being studied,
whales are too, and scientific surveys like this are just the tip of the
iceberg when it comes to the use of drones in the future. Goldman Sachs
predicts that drones in construction alone are worth $11bn and we examine how
major asset owners are taking to the skies to maintain, operate and construct.
GUESTS

Dave Cummins, IRIS Group Aero
