Methods, systems and computer program products for detecting contagious diseases in a wildlife population using a drone are provided. Aspects include monitoring, by a drone, a geographic area and capture images of the geographic area and analyzing the captured images to identify a deceased wildlife in a region of the geographic area. Aspects also include performing increased monitoring of the region and capture supplemental images of the region using the drone and analyzing the supplemental images to identify a number of deceased wildlife in the region. Based on a determination that number of deceased wildlife in the region, greater than a threshold number, a corrective action is taken.

The invention relates to an apparatus for representing user information including an antenna apparatus, a processing apparatus and a representation apparatus. The antenna apparatus receives signals of a transmitter in a scene with at least one directional characteristic relating to spatially different receive sensitivities. Alternatively or additionally, the antenna apparatus sends signals with at least one directional characteristic into a scene and receives signals of a transmitter from the scene. The processing apparatus processes the received signals with respect to the scene and determines representation data represented by the representation apparatus. Further, the invention relates to a respective method.

Embodiments provide for a portable imager by capturing several radar readings related to an object in an environment over several times from several of Points of View (POV), wherein each radar reading indicates a distance to and reflectivity of the object relative to the imager; capturing several camera images of the environment over the several of times from the several POVs; determining positional shifts of the imager over the several times based on photogrammetrical differences between subsequent camera images of the several camera images; determining, based on accelerometer data, a trajectory that the imager moves in the environment over the several times; determining positions of the imager in the environment over the several times based on the positional shifts and the trajectory; combining the several radar readings based on the positions to produce a synthetic aperture radar image of the object; and outputting the synthetic aperture radar image.
