Forest Carbon Monitoring

Information on forest biomass and carbon is in high demand by forestry stakeholders. This project will develop remote sensing based user-centric approaches for forest carbon monitoring, helping to shift economies towards carbon neutral futures.We aim to develop and implement a prototype of a remote sensing based monitoring and accounting platform with consistent results on carbon stock. The platform aims to act as a prototype of an operational system for standardized forest biomass and carbon monitoring, offering:

• A selection of statistically robust monitoring methods designed for accurate large-scale and small-scale carbon accounting. This removes barriers that prevent fact-based decision making regarding forest carbon stocks.
• Cloud processing capabilities to unleash the potential of the increased volumes of high resolution satellite data and other large datasets.
