Studying Dugong with UAVs
Given their elusiveness, rarity and scattered distribution in Indian waters, a new approach was required to monitor dugongs. Aerial surveys using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) were therefore used around seagrass meadows. These are now categorised as Critical Dugong Habitats identified based on inputs by the Dugong Volunteer Network, which comprises fisherfolk, SCUBA divers, and other seafarers.
