The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) manages over 26 million acres of land around the world, including
hundreds of thousands of acres of wilderness. In order to manage these areas, the DoD natural resource
managers monitor wildlife populations, protect natural resources, and ensure the continued health of the
ecosystem.

Motion sensor camera traps are a key tool for species conservation in many areas. Historically, natural
resource managers would periodically hike or drive to camera sites to retrieve SD cards loaded with
images. This task exposes field personnel to safety risks, is time-consuming, and often disturbs local
wildlife.
</p>
<p class="lead mb64">
Mission Mule partnered with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Construction Engineering Research
Laboratory (USACE CERL) and the Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center under the
DoD's Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP) to autonomous data retrieval
hardware to better monitor wildlife populations, minimize disturbance of local wildlife, and reduce
personnel safety risks.*

Mission Mule’s Data Mule UAS autonomously flies to a camera trap and circles overhead as the data is
wirelessly downloaded. The UAS then visits nearby sites before returning home loaded with data to be
offloaded by the flight crew. This technology allows researchers to regularly retrieve images from
camera trap sites in hard-to-reach areas without exposing field personnel to excessive driving or hiking
in hostile environments or disturbing wildlife with manual data retrieval.
</p>
<p class="lead mb80">
Using the Data Mule UAS fully autonomous flight capability, field teams were able to fly extended
missions and navigate complex terrain up to 12km (7.5mi) from the takeoff site. The Data Mule capability
gives field teams the opportunity to regularly retrieve data from field sensors from across the range,
significantly improving wildlife monitoring coverage and ensuring the continued health of the ecosystem.

<h4>Barry M Goldwater Range</h4>
<p class="lead mb32">
Barry M Goldwater Range East (BMGR-E) is administered by the U.S. Air Force and encompasses over one
million acres of remote desert habitat in the American Southwest. The range is home to thousands of
species of plants and animals including the Sonoran Pronghorn, an endangered species which is making
important strides towards its recovery due to the ongoing efforts of range management teams at BMGR-E.
</p>
<p class="lead mb64">
At BMGR-E, Mission Mule supported existing efforts to monitor wildlife populations with Data
Mule-enabled motion sensor cameras located at artificial watering sites that local wildlife depends on
to survive the harsh desert climate.

<h4>Point Mugu and San Nicolas Island</h4>
<p class="lead mb32">
Mission Mule also installed its technology at two U.S. Navy facilities along Southern California's
Pacific Coast, Point Mugu and San Nicolas Island. With their locations on the coast, these installations
are known for their diverse wildlife including elephant seals, sea lions, and Brandt's cormorants, a
species of concern.
</p>
<p class="lead mb64">
Mission Mule's technology allowed field teams to autonomously retrieve images from camera traps located
in the marshes at Point Mugu and from within coastal bird colonies on San Nicolas Island. The systems
allowed field teams continuous access to areas that are difficult to regularly reach on foot for much of
the year and without disturbing the ecosystem.

<h4>Wrapping Up</h4>
<p class="lead mb32">
At these various sites, Mission Mule technology was used to accelerate ongoing conservation efforts of
local species and ensure ongoing stewardship of military lands.
</p>
<p class="lead mb64">
Moving forward, we are excited to partner with additional organizations to help field teams better
manage their land and resources. Please reach out if you're interested.
