Drones aid reforestation in Austria’s Tyrol forest

In Austria’s Alps, drones are being used in a pilot project to protect areas of the forest vulnerable to deforestation.

In a project orchestrated between the State Forestry Directorate and the East Tyrol District Forestry Inspectorate drones are being used to fight against the destructive bark beetle. 
If successful, the initiative could be applied in neighbouring countries.
