Our researchers use remote sensing and telecommunications to streamline data collection. Applications include fieldwork and lab-based research.
Remote sensing and communications allow researchers to streamline data collection and automate research. Large datasets can be collected rapidly and transferred wirelessly ready to be processed and analysed. When combined with robotics and high-throughput data analysis, remote sensing enables biological research and rapid testing of Engineering Biology solutions.
Cambridge has wide-ranging expertise in the use of low-cost open source solutions for remote sensing. These tools are being applied in both lab-based environments and for fieldwork. Areas of interest include smart agriculture and environmental monitoring.
