Drones are an important tool in the geosciences because they allow safe access to dangerous terrain and fill an important resolution gap between field and satellite datasets. This drone is about to take-off from the Roque de los Muchachos observatory (La Palma, Canary Islands) and survey cliff faces above Caldera Taburiente.
