Sustainable Venture Development Partners (SVDP) works with investors, entrepreneurialmanagers, and corporates to originate, build and grow sustainable companies. Growth of thesecompanies is de-risked through access to our extensive network, deep sector expertise, andventure development experience.SVDP has developed a prototype design for a Flood & Coastal Erosion Risk Analysis &Intervention System (ERA) via the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The systemwill deliver real time analysis of flood and erosion risks, and offer ‘next step’ interventionmeasures, with the use of thermal sensors, HD imaging, Light Detection And Ranging(LiDAR), and GIS to interpret the changing characteristics of UK waterways.ERA improves upon the ROI of existing waterway monitoring by eliminating time consumingmanual activity, whilst increasing the richness and consistency of data collected. The deviceleverages proprietary software, which uses thermal and visual data to identify sediment builduprates and geographical transformations. This in turn informs strategic intervention plans.ERA borrows techniques developed by the precision agriculture industry, tailoring systemarchitecture to flood and erosion service requirements. With £3.2bn spent on flood and coastaldefence last Parliament (Defra), ERA stretches public investment by (1) streamliningmonitoring and (2) improving decision making.ERA takes advantage of decreasing UAV cost, and consists of four components: (1) a thermal/ HD imaging / LiDAR integrated UAV, (2) photogrammetry / GIS software, (3) arecommendation engine, and (4) a user interface presenting data and intervention options.Successful deployment requires coordination amongst many stakeholders and detailed marketresearch. This study’s objective is to prove our value proposition and produce a technologydevelopment plan prior to securing Proof of Concept funding

可持续风险发展合作伙伴 (SVDP) 与投资者、企业家经理和企业合作，创办、建立和发展可持续发展的公司。通过利用我们广泛的网络、深厚的行业专业知识和风险开发经验，这些公司的发展可以降低风险。SVDP 通过使用无人机 (UAV) 开发了洪水和海岸侵蚀风险分析和干预系统 (ERA) 的原型设计。该系统将利用热传感器、高清成像、光探测和测距 (LiDAR) 和 GIS 来实时分析洪水和侵蚀风险，并提供“下一步”干预措施，以解释英国水道的变化特征。ERA 通过消除耗时的手动活动，同时提高所收集数据的丰富性和一致性，提高了现有水道监测的投资回报率。该设备利用专有软件，使用热和视觉数据来识别沉积物堆积和地理变化。这反过来又为战略干预计划提供信息。ERA 借鉴了精准农业行业开发的技术，根据洪水和侵蚀服务要求定制系统架构。上届议会 (Defra) 在洪水和海岸防御方面投入了 32 亿英镑，ERA 通过 (1) 简化监测和 (2) 改进决策制定来扩大公共投资。ERA 利用无人机成本下降的优势，由四个部分组成：(1) 热成像/高清成像/LiDAR 集成无人机，(2) 摄影测量/GIS 软件，(3) 推荐引擎，以及 (4) 用户界面 提供数据和干预选项。成功的部署需要许多利益相关者之间的协调和详细的市场研究。本研究的目的是在获得概念验证资金之前证明我们的价值主张并制定技术开发计划
