Map the Gap Phase 3
Supports United Kingdom environmental monitoring innovation through gap mapping and advanced river and ecosystem projects.
Map the Gap Phase 3 is a UK Defence Innovation competition run on behalf of the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) and the British Army, seeking proposals for novel sensing technologies deployable from uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) to address two specific military mobility challenges. Challenge 1 targets remote measurement of ground bearing capacity (GBC) to assess whether terrain caβ¦
Funds novel sensing technologies deployable from uncrewed aerial vehicles to measure ground bearing capacity and conduct underwater river profiling in support of military mobility planning.
