Hi everyone!
We'd like to present a natural, eco-friendly, quiet and smooth alternative to aerial monitoring of ecosystems: a kite.
We did a quick (and rather unscientific) test of kite aerial monitoring of a fragile habitat under invasion: Natura 2000 protected marsh of Radensko polje, Slovenia.
Aerial photos cah help in assesing the number of invasive plants in an ecosystem. Kite aerial photos even more so, as the kite is way eco friendly than other alternatives ... you just don't go buzzing above an important habitat scaring the hell out of everyone (especially them protected species)!

Thanks and have a nice day!
