DESCRIPTION:At the last minute\, I packed my drone for a trip to the CUCC A
 ustria Expedition to the Loser Plateau. Loser is a very large limestone pl
 ateau at 2\,000 meters\, so the vegetation is mostly a low scrub pine. Thi
 s creates an ideal environment for using drones to aid prospecting for new
  potential entrances. This talk covers the speaker's crash course in photo
 grammetry to create useful imagery and models from drone flights.

DESCRIPTION:During the CUCC Austria Expedition\, the speaker learned to cre
 ate geotiffs from drone imagery. This highly detailed imagery is fun to lo
 ok at\, but without more context\, it is hard to use in the field. This ta
 lk covers adding the images to a QGIS project and integrating the images w
 ith entrance data and known cave passages. The talk covers a potential sol
 ution for collecting entrance and feature information in the field and upl
 oading directly to the GIS project. This should reduce data entry errors a
 nd keep photos together with their locations.
