Making the most from high-resolution imagery and LiDAR | FGrOW Webinar Series #12

Information about the series: https://fgrow.friresearch.ca/news/fgr... Abstract The Alberta Vegetation Inventory (AVI) is a photo-based digital inventory developed to identify the type, extent and conditions of vegetation, where it exists and what changes are occurring. The AVI is updated every 10 years and most FMAs’ in Alberta are now covered by a ‘softcopy’ vegetation inventory (AVI). The softcopy approach represented a technological revolution as it enabled high-resolution aerial photography to be delineated and interpreted at scales not previously imaginable. Sundre Forest Products (SFP) sees the potential to use more recent imagery and Lidar data to build a more efficient inventory process. This new approach aims to consolidate the operational and strategic aspects of an inventory in a much shorter time-period potentially decreasing the interval between inventories (i.e., real-time AVI). In addition, recently acquired high resolution remotely sensed data, such as LiDAR, provides opportunities to leverage several value-added products. In this presentation we will present our views and planned approach to generate SFP’s next AVI. We will also present key value-added products we are developing to enhance our operational and strategic understanding of the current forest-state in our FMA. Presenter Bios John Nash has a B.A. (Environmental Studies) and B.Sc. (Biology), both from the University of Winnipeg. John has been working as a forest ecologist for 25 years, mainly with Greenlink Forestry where he provides solutions to the forestry industry from the operational to the strategic (landscape) scale. He is a self-described ‘jack-of-all-trades’ who thrives in the multi-discipline nature of forestry and ecology. Leo Fagnan has a bilingual BSC from the Faculté St Jean and a BSC in Forestry, both from the U of A. He has 30 years of broad industrial forestry experience focusing mostly on operational planning in the Foothills. Leo enjoys integrating the best possible data acquisition methods and field knowledge, into innovative practical management processes. He is currently the planning superintendent at Sundre Forest Products.
