Listen to Pete Watt and Andrew Holdaway from Indufor present a framework developed to refresh New Zealand’s National Exotic Forest Description (NEFD).
The presentation given at the 2021/2022 Forestry Remote Sensing Cluster Group builds on the ongoing collaboration between Scion, the School of Forestry and Indufor’s recent international projects.
It showcases a novel approach that extracts forest information from satellite and LiDAR data to update wood availability forecasts. Such information supports sector investment, policy development and future infrastructure requirements.
