PhD student Ricelli conducted field survey and internship study together with The Gobi Institute in Mongolia. Activities included survey with rural herder families, drone survey for crop assessment and animal husbandry studies, measurement and study of Mongolian traditional houses (Ger). Survey and questionnaires were made with around 40 families in different areas of Mongolia: Gobi desert, steppes and lake Khovsgol in the north. It also included national parks like Khustain, Terelj, Khangai Nuruu, the Great Gobi A and Khovsgol park. Research about traditional manufacturing process of Mongolian Ger was also conducted, and educational programs to teach locals how to use drones for pasture management was made.
