This summer, 20 Master and PhD students can get a unique experience and learn about unmanned aerial systems. NAROM, the Norwegian Centre for Space-related Education, together with Andøya Rocket Range, Narvik University College, University of Tromsø, University of Bergen and NORUT host the first summer school about unmanned aerial systems with a technical approach at Andøya Rocket Range.
The summer School is an international summer school, also open for students outside Norway. The summer school is a part of the scientific project Arctic Earth Observation and Surveillance Technologies. The course consists of theoretical lectures and practical operation of UAS and data analysis. Top scientists within their area will give lectures within UAS technology. The main focus will be to plan a real UAS operation, build your own payload, integration within the UAS payload section, UAS operation and data handling and analysis. A detailed report should be written summarizing lecture topics and flight results. Students will be enrolled under Narvik University College to be able to get the 5 ECTS credits for completing the course.
This workshop will be co-funded by COST Action ES 0802.
