Cover Story: NC State University researchers launched a drone from an observation platform on Roan Mountain in North Carolina (1800 meters elevation) to collect imagery of the cliff face. Approximately 1000 meters of elevation change was visible in the photograph, which highlighted the difficulty of monitoring the rare plant, Geum radiatum, at this location. The researchers used a machine learning predictive model to plan a targeted flight area, allowing for efficient data collection without impacting the rare plant or endangering personnel. Visual analysis of UAS imagery verified the locations of thirty-three known plants and discovered four previously undocumented occurrences. View this paper.
