During 2010 Baker Consultants has been pioneering the use of remote sensing technology (with the Wildlife Acoustics’ SM2) which is new to the UK and offers improved data collection for bat and bird calls. The technology is cheaper, more reliable, easier to deploy and constructed to cope with the extremes of the British climate. more

Andrew is speaking at the Renewable UK conference in Glasgow, on Tuesday 2nd November (2.15pm), as part of the Onshore Seminar on development issues (Ecology). He will be speaking about remote bat monitoring technology and its pre-development applications. more
