    Brief

    This funding opportunity supports the development, integration, deployment and demonstration of innovative autonomous solutions for atmospheric science and autonomous aerial systems for environmental applications. Projects must deliver demonstrable capability, high-quality environmental data, and pathways towards wider adoption. Funding of up to £1 million is available. Eligible applicants should propose solutions that advance autonomous technologies for gathering atmospheric data, monitoring environmental conditions, or supporting scientific research through unmanned aerial systems. Projects should show clear potential for practical implementation and demonstrate how the technology will generate reliable environmental data that can be used by researchers, environmental agencies, or other end-users. Applications are encouraged from technology developers, research institutions, and organizations with expertise in autonomous systems, atmospheric science, environmental monitoring, or aerial robotics.
