Drone Documentation of Stream Restoration
Drone Documentation of Stream Restoration
As part of a multi-year stream restoration effort, EOR drone pilots flew a stream reach before, during, and after construction to document the restoration of this trout stream in southeast Minnesota. Drone video and photo-footage captured the change in stream geomorphology and the establishment of native vegetation.
