Speaker: David Wei

David Wei will presnet a paper by Reymann et al. on an approach to guide a fleet of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles to actively gather data in low-altitude cumulus clouds with the aim of mapping atmospheric variables.

Below is the key points David will go through:

(1) how the trajectory of drones is planned with on-line machine learning that best constrains a cumulus field, and

(2) conventional cloud observation approaches, including satellite, ground-based measurements, and comprehensive aircraft campaign.
