Western Yalanji Aboriginal Corporation (WYAC) governs the land on Quinkan Country where this project is located. WYAC is integral to the projects success in navigating rock art sites for continued data capture. Local Ku-Ku Yalanji rangers have undergone drone certification training to assist the project’s technologists and archaeologists document re-discovered rock art inaccessible by foot, which will help increase awareness of additional sites and advise the preservation of West Yalanji culture.

In addition to the re-discovery of sites using drone and hover mapping to preserve culture this project potentiates economic growth for the region and West Yalanji people.

Applying the skills developed and data captured into different industries will increase local employability and contribute to the scaling of technological and economic growth in regional and remote areas of Australia.
