Un-crewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) derived population counts of gentoo and chinstrap penguin and South Georgia shag colonies on Signy Island, South Orkney Islands, 2016-2018
Numbers of nesting birds were manually counted from images collected by low-altitude aerial photography from multirotor Un-crewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Three species were included in this study; gentoo (Pygoscelispapua) and chinstrap (Pygoscelis antarctica) penguin and South Georgia shag (Leucocarbo atriceps georgianus). Data were collected in the 2016/17 and 2017/18 field seasons.
