James Hutton VR

Our researchers are deploying aerial mapping technology to collect data on the natural restoration of #peatland at the Queen’s Balmoral Estate. An aircraft equipped with laser scanners is being used to create highly detailed 3D models of upland peatland bit.ly/3uUO1Xj

Peatlands occupy 12% of the UK’s land area & store vast quantities of carbon. Healthy peatlands capture CO­2 from the atmosphere and so can help offset the effects of human activities such as fossil fuel burning. Visit our marquee on Ave Q #HighlandShow to learn more #HuttonatRHS
