Dr. Steve Cinderby is using a Phantom to learn more about our environment, educate the public, and support conservation efforts. Now, he is working with the Yorkshire Arboretum to create a digital map of trees across a wide area. He flies over the arboretum, capturing the position of each tree and its height, and uses this data to provide a real-time information to staff and guests.
