Full description

Digital Surface Model of the Casey Upper Fuel Farm site to support environmental monitoring (Cleaner Antarctica project) acquired with drone mounted LiDAR. Processed in DJI Terra.

Date: 11 December 2025
Pilots: Dr Gwil Price and Dr Rebecca McWatters
Platform: DJI M350 RTK
Sensor: DJI Zenmuse L2 LiDAR sensor
Positioning: M350 connected to D-RTK-2; precise D-RTK-2 antenna location applied in DJI Terra.
Mode: DSM Terrain Following (REMA2, Bailey Peninsula clip)
Australian Antarctic Division – Environmental Stewardship Program
ATEP Permit: Wasley – Project 4622 - Cleaner Antarctica
ReOC: Department of Climate Change, Environment, Energy and Water
Type: VLOS Class 1 (lt,750m)
Ground crew: Tim Spedding, Jordan Vink, Mel Borup
Processing: Dan Wilkins

Lineage

Progress Code: completed
Statement: A number of ground control points were laid out in the project area and surveyed using an Emlid Reach Rx rover receiving RTK corrections from the local CORS (Continuously Operating Reference Station) base station run by Geoscience Australia (cas1). Specific accuracy metrics, including Residual Mean Square Error estimates, are in the DJI Terra Processing Report.

Notes

Purpose
Obtain an accurate digital surface model and accompanying orthomosaic of ground conditions at the Casey Upper Fuel Farm to support Project 4622 (Cleaner Antarctica).
