Health research project seeking to borrow "Parrot Sequoia" NDVI camera

[Liz Barry]

Hi infrared and nyc-nj folks, 

Short story: there are some community researchers in the tri-state (NY-NJ-CT) region who are seeking to document forest foliage damage from a compressor station for fracked natural gas. Because human health effects are so hard to document, this is a work-around to show the effects of fracking on this community, and is only one of a number of advocacy angles being worked by the local grassroots movement. For instance, here's one of the local residents speaking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BpLqjR3OrY

The community researchers are seeking to borrow an infrared camera they can put on the drone they already have. 

• The Parrot Sequoia will fit their drone perfectly, and produces NDVI GeoTIFFs http://www.parrot.com/usa/companies/sequoia/
• Here's its specs in case someone has some similar equipment http://www.micasense.com/#faq

We really appreciate you reading this, please get in touch with any ideas, thanks!

Liz
