• When is a drone not a drone? Performing meaningful scientific work with the AggieAir Unmanned Aerial System 

  Coopmans, Calvin; Jensen, Austin M.; McKee, Mac (Kansas State University, 2014-01-09)

  Current aerial drones are platforms for weapons or surveillance, providing actionable intelligence or targeted strikes. Although similar in many respects, the AggieAir UAS is not a drone. AggieAir is designed to ...
• Modeling tallgrass prairie above-ground biomass in the central great plains using ultra-high spatial resolution multispectral imagery 

  Wang, Chuyuan; Price, Kevin P.; van der Merwe, Deon; Wang, Huan; An, Nan (Kansas State University, 2014-01-08)

  This paper studied the relationship between tallgrass prairie above-ground biomass (AGB) and spectral data by linking ground AGB measurements with ultra-high spatial resolution multispectral imagery and using NDVIgreen ...
• Using small unmanned aircraft systems for high spatial and temporal resolution characterizations of harmful algal blooms 

  van der Merwe, Deon; Price, Kevin P. (Kansas State University, 2014-01-08)

  Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are of toxicological interest because several genera of cyanobacteria, also known as blue‐green algae, have the ability to produce potent toxins that affect people, livestock, pets, and wildlife. ...
