Description

The aerial perspective facilitates overview, access, and the connection of the micro to the territorial scale. While their ubiquitous nature in contemporary landscapes, and landscape offices, the drone also allows visual and sensing techniques in places and motions impossible for humans to reach. Despite their link in the media to the military or the trivial, they're being deployed to map, for conservation purposes, and in specialised applications such as bushfire monitoring and construction inspection.

This elective introduces students to aerial fieldwork techniques, various forms of data collection, processing, and synthesis with cartographical platforms and applications.

Using varied platforms, visual and extra-sensory data sets are collected and synthesised in relation to a specific site. Students have a chance to fly and create their own view on the site and the territory.

Exercises shall produce images, video, and cartographical materials, and link these back to analog field work and site observation.
