“…The favourable properties of UAV‐borne remote sensing systems mean that they have been successfully, and repeatedly, used for data collection (Manfreda et al, ; Pajares, ) for a wide range of applications (Baena, Boyd, & Moat, ; Dandois & Ellis, ; Dash, Watt, Pearse, Heaphy, & Dungey, ; Goodbody, Coops, Tompalski, Crawford, & Day, ; Kachamba, Ørka, Gobakken, Eid, & Mwase, ; Morley et al, ; Puliti, Ørka, Gobakken, & Næsset, ; Wallace, Lucieer, Watson, & Turner, ). Several reviews have summarized aspects of UAV research in a range of contexts including environmental monitoring (Manfreda et al, ), forestry (Torresan et al, ), ecology (Anderson & Gaston, ) and other domains (De Roos, Turner, Lucieer, & Bowman, ; Singh & Frazier, ). However, no review has yet addressed the application of UAV data to support IAP research even though these data are well suited to this application.…”
