For over a decade\, the master ar chitectural plan for the NCSU campus has shown a transportation corridor m arked “Future monorail” between the D.H. Hill library on Main campus a nd the Hunt library on Centennial campus. ecoPRT is an project being desig ned and prototyped to be the system that fills NCSU corridor. The interest ing side effect of EcoPRT’s design at NCSU is that these same features m ake EcoPRT suitable for thousands of circulator applications around the wo rld. Because of its low cost\, small footprint and sensible design\, EcoPR T can fit into a wide variety of environments including college campuses\, business campuses\, airports\, shopping centers\, urban cores and large s uburban developments.\n\nPlease refer to following link for more informati on about ecoPRT project. Highly impressive Dr. Seth Hollar and his team wi ll present about their project information involving ecoPRT.\n\nhttp://eco prt.com/ecoprt-at-ncsu/\n\nhttp://ecoprt.com/video/\n\nDrones for Geoscien ce involves interdisciplinary STEM approaches that focuses on discovery\, interpretation and communication of meaningful patterns in location-based data.
