I'm a software engineer / pilot working for a small startup company in Lincoln, Nebraska called Drone Amplified.
We're currently making a way to ignite prescribed fires using drones. Prescribed fires are useful for reducing wildfires, managing ecosystems, controlling invasive species, and improving rangelands for livestock and grazing. Typically, prescribed fires are ignited by teams of land managers with kerosene drip torches, but difficult terrain can be dangerous to ignite with drip torches. Using drones to ignite prescribed fires will make the process much safer and more convenient.
I primarily fly DJI Matrice 600's.
Great to meet you all!
