Drone Stories

Tracking Malaria

Where
Malawi
Why
Crowddroning by GLOBHE is sending out drones to track malaria mosquito breeding sites by monitoring water levels, water movements, vegetation and mosquito larval populations. The insights produced by the detailed image data from the drones are being used to pinpoint at risk areas for malaria outbreaks to more efficiently allocate resources to the areas in need, resulting in cost savings, time savings and improved public health. The initiative started in Malawi in 2018 in collaboration with the United Nations and Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine. Today 40 % of the world’s population live in areas with malaria risk and 300 million people suffer from acute malaria each year. According to UNICEF malaria has been estimated to cost Africa more than US$ 12 billion every year even though it could be controlled for a fraction of that sum. Drones are now helping do that by identifying mosquito larval population target areas up to 30 times faster than traditional surveying methods.

Tracking Natural Disasters

Where
Global
Why
Crowddroning by GLOBHE is sending out drones to track warning signs for natural disasaters such as monitoring drought levels to pinpoint at risk areas for wildfires as well as inpecting damages caused by natural disasters such as cyclones and floodings. The insights produced by the detailed image data from the drones are being used to guide relief efforts and allocate rebuilding and maintenance efforts to areas in need by identifying damages to roads, buildings, bridges, telecom towers and other critical infrastructure; helping humanitarian organisations, governments and infrastructure companies save time, reduce cost and improve public safety. The initiative started in Tanzania in 2018 in collaboration with the World Bank and has since been used to detect and predict natural disasters in Malawi, Fiji, Sweden and India. Drones now generate 10,000 times more data than typical ground surveys up to 30 times faster. In addition drones increase data quality up to 50 times (1 cm image resolution drone vs 50 cm image resolution satellite) making detailed analysis possible as well as ensuring updated real time data sets (satellites often lagging 16 days - 2 years).

Tracking Connectivity

Where
Global
Why
Crowddroning by GLOBHE is sending out drones to inspect telecommunications towers around the world, reducing data capturing times from 1 day to 1 hour. Instead of using traditional methods, such as climbing the telecom towers, which is less efficient, provides limited data sets, and comes with certain risks for workers (telecom tower climbing is considered one of the most dangerous jobs in the world), drones are now surveying the towers instead; helping telecom companies improve worker’s safety, improve data quality, reduce costs and save time, as well as keeping communities around the world connected. The initiative started in Norway in 2020 in collaboration with a global telecom company and will scale to 30 countries over the next two years. The drones will be used for ongoing service and maintenance inspection, as well as capturing damages from sudden onset changes such as natural disasters, to ensure access to communications in affected, hard to reach areas.

Tracking Water Pollution

Where
Sweden
Why
Crowddroning by GLOBHE is sending out drones to monitor algae bloom, oil spills and other visual signs of water pollution. The insights produced by the detailed image data from the drones are being used to inform water purification plants of sudden onset changes so they can take appropriate actions. Before this information was obtained from satellite data which lags in time, produces less image quality and is not useful on cloudy days. Now the drones are being used as a complement to satellites to increase data quality, reduce cost for water purification plants, and improve water quality for communities. The initiative started in Sweden in 2020 in collaboration with Vinnova, DHI and Norrvatten with the goal of scaling to additional countries after monitoring and evaluation of the results.

FAQ

How do I request drone data from Crowddroning by GLOBHE?

Check out the video

Why do I need drone data from Crowddroning by GLOBHE?

Crowddroning by GLOBHE is connected to thousands of drone pilots in 70+ countries who collect image data on demand when you place a data request. Once the image data is collected it is stitched together into digital maps (if the map option is selected by the client, raw data is also available) based on drone images instead of satellite images. This provides our end users with more updated information since most satellite images lag in time between 16 days and 2 years depending on where in the world you are, making sudden onset changes such as natural disasters, hard to detect in a timely manner through satellites. Each drone photo is geotagged which makes overlay on satellite maps possible to visualize location and changes over time. Drone photos are also of much higher image resolution (down to 1 cm compared to 100 cm for most satellite images) which makes detailed analysis possible such as identifying infrastructural failures, crop damage or potential malaria mosquito breeding sites. Last but not least we export our drone maps/the finished product in different formats such as 2D maps/orthomosaics, 3D maps, Elevation maps etc depending on the insights the clients are looking for before we send a download link to the client. What was previously a lengthy and complex process, involving multiple suppliers, is now reduced to the simplicity of ordering an Uber!

How much does drone data cost?

The price starts from USD 1/mb, depending on size of area, what kind of drone data is requested, and how much our local drone pilots charge for the mission. When you request drone data we will get back to you with a price quote for you to approve before sending out a drone pilot to capture your data.

How long does it take to receive my drone data?

It depends on a few different factors such as pilot availability, size of the area requested, kind of drone data requested and varying data uploading times depending on where in the world the data is being uploaded from. When you request drone data we will get back to you with a time estimation as part of your quote. 

What is the finished product/the data output formats available for clients to download?

Clients will receive a download link where they can download the data requested as jpg, tif and/or zip folder as per their drone data request eg. Raw data/photos = jpg, 2D Map = tif. More information is to be found here. 

What about data security, storage and access?
