On July 26th, Nick Urban and the summer 2011 GIS team conducted a test flight of the Flying Bison. See video to learn more about the Miller Run Restoration Project and to see footage captured by the drone during its flight.
Thanks to Lindsay Coffee and Erin Murphy for their work on shooting & editing the video footage.
