OnCourse Training Site – Then and Now

Published August 24, 2014 By Mick Farmer

Not only has the site grown, but the technology used to capture the photos has changed.  In 2003, we chartered a plane for the aerial shots and a 800 kb photo size was considered pretty good.  In 2014, Skyworks Africa captured videos and photos using a drone and 7 mb is a pretty decent photo size.

Since taking over the property(s) in 2003, we have worked hard to encourage the tropical forest to regenerate (part of the Guineo-Congolian forest). Our tracks only cover a small portion of the site and certainly in the Low Range area, they are now almost completely covered by a beautiful tropical canopy.
