Unmanned Airborne Vehicles (UAV's)



About a month or so ago, someone asked about unmanned airborne vehicles
for doing remote sensing work in the tropics.  I saw such a UAV this
week at the 1st International Conference on Geospatial Information in
Forestry and Agriculture.  It has an 11 foot wing span, weighs 100
pounds with a 25 pound payload.  It has a 2-4 hour endurance and is
guided by GPS autopilot.  For further information, contact Olav Smistad
(osmistad@spaceindustries.com), Air-O-Space International, Building
2105, Stennis Space Center, MS 39529 USA. Tel: +1-228-688-2859  or Fax:
+1-228-688-2582.  Please share as appropriate.
