    As part of the STARE experiments conducted in the low-speed wind tunnel, the DLR team is investigating, among other factors, which areas on the drone's surface are more suitable for recording gas concentration and wind strength. Furthermore, correction algorithms are to be developed at a later stage to eliminate the errors in measurement data caused by the downdraft effect. Credit: DLR (CC BY-NC-ND 3.0)
