Presentamos los resultados de nuestra campaña de campo en #Mozambique - #África. En este paper se muestra como los #miombos africanos contienen más carbono que lo pensado gracias al uso de #lidar a multiescala usando #drones y #helicópteros. Link: doi.org/10.1038/s43247-024-0…

.@beisitluz of @sylveracarbon uses drones to collect first-of-their-kind lidar data across thousands of hectares of forests (up to 15,000 pts/m2), to map carbon stocks in Gile National Reserve, Mozambique. bit.ly/3cFoYUI #WomeninDronesWednesday

🌳 Forest or faux-ist? Does this look like an aerial photo of a rainforest? It's actually a 3D LiDAR scan of forest canopy, taken by our field team on a trip to Peru. We capture LiDAR data to train our machine learning models to estimate forest biomass with unprecedented accuracy
