Featured research
We have a new addition to our environmental and ecological research team, the DraganFlyer X6.
The X6 is a unique and state-of-the-art 6-rotor helicopter featuring a revolutionary aerial photography system that can take high definition video and pictures.
The University of Worcester is one of only two Universities in the UK to invest in the The DraganFlyer X6 helicopter. It will allow researchers at the University to carry out vital studies of rivers, archaeological sites and landscapes. They will also be able to capture vertical and oblique aerial photographs to support more accurate and advanced studies that are planned for river research in California next year along with other projects in the UK.
