• Drone in a field Apr 26, 2025

  

  Spent a couple of days this week flying the new DJI Matrice 4E in Hampshire. The task was to capture orthomosaic data for the WildPosh Grand Challenge project and involved a fair bit of prep with lots of support from Leo (Royal Holloway / UCL) and Matti (Reading) to get farmers permissions and flight locations. But even given lots of site analysis work on Google and OS maps, plus test flights locally to get the work flow for data capture sorted, I still fell at the first hurdle.

WORK

My blog has commentary on work activity with more official content over on the Connected Environments corner of the internet. My work social streams are at the footer of the page and for those who remember del.icio.us I now have social bookmarks over on Pinboard.

PROFILE

For a quick overview of work information view the hello section in the top navigation or jump over to LinkedIn for a longer form.

FUN

Extra curricula making activities are in the projects section, videos are on Vimeo, photos are on Flickr (pseudonomad - my original web alias!), what I’m drinking is in whiskey and if you are curious about what I am listening to (other than BBC R6 / R4) then take a look at Last.fm or a spotify playlist combining lab preferences.
