High-Endurance UAV for Monitoring Calving Glaciers: Application to the Inglefield Bredning and Eqip Sermia, Greenland

High-Endurance UAV for Monitoring Calving Glaciers: Application to the Inglefield Bredning and Eqip Sermia, Greenland

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) photogrammetry has become an important tool for generating multi-temporal, high-resolution ortho-images and digital elevation models (DEMs) to study glaciers and their dynamics. In polar regions, the roughness of the terrain, strong katabatic winds, unreliability of com...
