Great opportunity on July 7 to hear Palaeontologist Dr Steven Salisbury’s presentation on the Cretaceous dinosaur tracks of the Dampier Peninsula. With the help of robotic experts from CSIRO and a remote sensing team from Airborne Research Australia, Dr Salisbury and his team has been recording hundreds of tracks along the West Kimberley coastline with drones, ladar aircraft and photo imaging. Using sophisticated software, the advanced digital vision they have collected is creating three dimensional images of the tracks, which will provide an invaluable resource for conservation and research into the future. Steve will walk you in the footsteps of dinosaurs – awesome!
