“…In this respect, the increased availability of unmanned aerial vehicles offers ecologists an unprecedented opportunity to obtain LiDAR data at a user‐defined scale and point density (Anderson & Gaston, ; Strandburg‐Peshkin et al., ). In addition, technical advances in animal tracking (Cagnacci, Boitani, Powell, & Boyce, ; De Margerie, Simonneau, Caudal, Houdelier, & Lumineau, ; Kays, Crofoot, Jetz, & Wikelski, ; Shipley, Kapoor, Dreelin, & Winkler, ) has drastically increased the spatial resolution (also in 3D) of location data which means that the spatial precision offered by LiDAR can increasingly be utilized to its full potential for viewshed ecology.…”
