University of Bristol students extend SAREnv at EuroDroS

June 2026 · EuroDroS, SDU Odense

It was great to host three University of Bristol Aerospace undergraduates — Ross Dewar, Ethan Dueck, and George Whinnett — at the EuroDroS conference at the University of Southern Denmark. Each student's third-year research project focused on extending and deploying SAREnv, the search-and-rescue simulation environment originally developed by our two institutions.

Their projects pushed SAREnv in a variety of new directions, and presenting at EuroDroS gave them a chance to share that work with the wider drone-safety community. Thanks to Bristol's student travel fund for supporting their attendance!

SAREnv is the shared wilderness-SAR dataset and benchmark we released with the University of Bristol — read more in our SAREnv post or grab the code on GitHub.
