Techno Trails

How can technology help us find out more about where we are and where would like to go? This month we go exploring to find out. Our techno' trail will take us to the MacKenzie Basin to explore mobile mapping, GPS, drones and much more! Check out the cool Techno Trail links on the right of this page.

 Three major lakes drain out into the MacKenzie Basin: Tekapo, Pukaki, Ohau.


 A bird's eye view of Lake Tekapo from a plane in April just after the snow.


 Another bird's eye view; this time of Lake Pukaki. Can you see Mount Cook in the background?


 What a cool way to get a great view ... paragliding off Coronet Peak.


Drones give an amazing bird's eye view. They are controlled by a pilot on the ground.
