More about Forest Remote Sensing
In our research group, we develop and validate remote sensing methods for use in forest management planning and terrestrial environmental analysis and assessment. We are a group of 25 people working
Forest Remote Sensing
In the field of forest remote sensing, we work with a wide range of sensors and platforms relevant to forestry and vegetation assessment. Common sensors include digital cameras, laser scanners and
Optical satellite images
Optical satellite sensors regularly generate images of the Earth, providing valuable data for vegetation classification and forest type analysis. By combining optical data with laser data, the
Digital photogrammetry
Digital Photogrammetry is the creation of three dimensional (3D) point cloud data by applying image matching to overlapping digital images. Photogrammetry means "measuring with light", where the
