Forest Remote Sensing

We develop methods to measure and characterise forests and vegetation using various types of sensor data. Common sensors include digital cameras, distance-measuring lasers, and imaging radar. The sensors are mounted on different types of platforms, such as satellites, aircraft, or drones, or are placed in ground-based systems that capture images of trees from the side.
