Drones or Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are everywhere! There is talk about using drones to do almost everything… from delivering parcels to inspecting assess and infrastructure .

What does this technology mean for graziers and how they manage their properties and livestock?

In this exciting webinar Josh Keegan (Director and CEO of the World Drone Challenge) will provide his insights into how drone research and technology can be used on properties to do everything from inspect water infrastructure (troughs and dams), to monitoring invasive pest species and crop health, to tracking and monitoring livestock.

Josh wears a couple of hats as both the Owner and Director of Keegan Consulting Group and also the Director and CEO of the World Drone Challenge.

He has given talks on the future of drones in cities at the Asia Pacific Cities Summit and theAudacious Ideas Festival in 2015 on ‘How to handle the coming drone invasion’.

Josh is currently working with aviation experts and CASA as part of the World Drone Challenge to create a new global competition placing Australia at the forefront of drone technology.
