Forestry

Conveying remote sensing data as a complement to ground-based inventory and management presents a significant challenge. Indeed, airborne hyperspectral imagery services offer to forest managers current and potential tools to retrieve both qualitative and quantitative information at appropriate level on forest health status and its changes :

• Grove and forest cover detection and characterization
• Maintenance and conservation of forests
• Inventory of dominant and rare species
• Early detection of diseases, health status estimation
