In order to avoid ambiguity, we choose to call these systems as UAS, with the definition used by the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA): “an unmanned aircraft (an aircraft that is operated without the possibility of direct human intervention from within or on the aircraft) and associated elements (including communication links and the components that control the unmanned aircraft) that are required for the pilot in command to operate safely and efficiently in the national airspace system.” (Public Law 112-95, Section 331 (8-9) United States). There are, however, a diversity of names and nomenclature for these devices depending on country of use, with drones, unmanned air vehicle (UAV), and unmanned aircraft system (UAS) being commonly used terms.

Most air vehicles used for plant phenotyping are based on the concept of a remotely piloted aircraft system (RPAS) as defined by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

This review provides a broad account of the state of the art in UAS-based phenotyping to reduce the barrier to entry to plant science practitioners interested in deploying this imaging modality for phenotyping in plant breeding and research areas. We discuss pressing technical challenges, identify future trends in UAS-based phenotyping that the plant research community should be aware of, and pinpoint key plant science and agronomic questions that can be resolved with the next generation of UAS-based imaging modalities and associated data analysis pipelines. This paper reviews the state of the art in the deployment, collection, curation, storage, and analysis of data from UAS-based phenotyping platforms. These advantages have expanded the use of UAS-based plant phenotyping approach in research and breeding applications.

Information Commissioner's Office, which worked with the Australians on the Clearview investigation, also said last month it intended to fine Clearview 17 million pounds ($22.59 million) for alleged breaches of data protection law. It follows a similar order by its Australian peer, which told Clearview to stop collecting images from websites and destroy data collected in the country. The decision follows several complaints, among them one by advocacy group Privacy International. The CNIL said Clearview had two months to abide by its demands or it could face a sanction. Clearview did not immediately reply to a request for comment.ĮU law provides for citizens to seek the removal of their personal data from a privately-owned database. It added that the New York-based firm failed to give those concerned proper access to their data, notably by limiting access to twice a year, without justification, and by limiting this right to data racked up during the 12 months before any request. "These biometric data are particularly sensitive, notably because they are linked to our physical identity (what we are) and allow us to be identified in a unique way," the authority said in a statement.

The regulator said the software company, which is used as a search engine for faces to help law enforcement and intelligence agencies in their investigations, failed to ask for the prior consent of those whose images it collected online. In a formal demand disclosed on Thursday, the CNIL stressed that Clearview's collection of publicly-available facial images on social media and the Internet had no legal basis and breached European Union rules on data privacy.
