Presentation Summary

Topic: Drone application technology for invasive species control

People are familiar with seeing drones flying around taking pictures and video; but, drones can also be used to help combat invasive species populations. During this presentation, we will dive into the different uses of drone technology for invasive species management - this can include both scouting as well as precision spot treatments and introducing competitive species. We will also touch on the current regulatory environment surrounding drone spraying in Canada and when you might be able to expect widespread adoption of the technology near you.

Speaker Bio

Cory Southam B. Sc., Operations Manager, Strongfield Environmental Solutions Inc.

Cory is originally from Strongfield, Saskatchewan, and has a Bachelor of Science in Earth Sciences from Simon Fraser University. Graduating in 2014, he found his way into the reclamation industry with Strongfield Environmental Solutions, where he has been for 6 years and is now the Operations Manager. Always looking for innovative ways to improve operations, Cory has been busy over the past 3 years helping to build Strongfield Environmental’s drone program and sits as the moderator in their newly formed Remotely Piloted Aerial Application Systems (RPAAS) Working Group. This group is made up of over 50 individuals from Health Canada, Transport Canada, the United States Department of Agriculture, 6 major chemical companies, and several industry representatives. Working with Health Canada and Transport Canada, Cory’s main goal for the group is to find the proper set of regulations to satisfy Health Canada’s concerns around including RPAAS platforms as a recognized aerial application method for Canada's vegetation management industry.
