Identifier 2024-024-FA
Alternate names 2024/2025 Fall and Winter Cape Cod National Seashore UAS storm response
Purpose To collect pre and post elevation data after fall and winter storms at the CoastCam equipment.
Location Head of the Meadow Beach, Marconi Beach

Comments Athina Lange joined as well - she is not in the WH database. This is the first of potentially a few flights, unknown how many, as our normal winter survey is usually in february or March. But we are finally making headway with flying drones in the Park rather than using the Helikite. If it can't cross years, can change it to December 31st. Entries for this field activity are based on entries from Field Activity 2023-022-FA.
