Technology Meets Conservation

Forests are among our most vital ecosystems, providing clean air, biodiversity, and climate regulation. Yet they face constant threats from deforestation, disease, pests, and wildfires. Traditional forestry management methods, while valuable, are often slow, labor-intensive, and limited in scope. Enter drones and robotics — technologies that provide a new era of efficiency and sustainability.

From monitoring canopy health to detecting fire risks and tracking reforestation, drones and ground robots are reshaping how we manage and protect forests. This article explores the core applications, real-world case studies, benefits, challenges, and future trends of drone-enabled forestry management.
