Carson Roberts, Ph.D., Headwall Senior Applications Engineer, and Scott Gallager, Ph.D. of Coastal Ocean Vision present results from an ongoing study of cyanobacteria activity in Santuit Pond, Massachusetts, USA. Valuable simultaneous ground-truth measurements from a water-borne Raman spectroscopy instrument were gathered while an off-the-shelf turnkey Headwall lightweight UAV with an integrated VNIR hyperspectral imager and LiDAR was flown overhead, all tagged with very precise timing and GPS coordinates.
