Dr. Cho is taking the time to teach a course on remote sensing to Dr. Calderon, grad student Abraham, and myself so we can be better prepared in designing our swarm robotics ocean monitoring system.
This system will use drones fitted with a variety of sensors including a hyperspectral sensor to monitor chlorophyll a in coastal Florida lagoons. Dr. Calderon has built a prototype drone and his colleagues in Columbia are working on the programming and simulations.
