Clementina Patagónica
THE PROJECT

A Patagonian scientific network of open data

Clementina exists to preserve the drone surveys produced by scientific and technical teams in the region, and return them to the ecosystem in open and citable formats.

ROADMAP

Where we are and where we are going

Three phases at different stages of progress. No date promises: what is done, is done.

  1. ✅ Available

    Phase 1 — Network MVP

    Public map, survey upload, human validation, download of orthomosaics and DEMs. This is what you are seeing now.

  2. 🟠 In progress

    Phase 2 — Advanced derived products

    Change detection across flights, automatic transects, temporal comparison, assisted counts. First prototype in-house.

  3. 🔵 Coming soon

    Phase 3 — 3D viewer in the browser

    Three-dimensional fly-throughs over any published survey. No special software, no heavy downloads.
