Center for Advanced Land Management Information Technologies (CALMIT) - a leader in remote sensing research & applications for ag. & natural resource since 1972
Congratulations to Dr. John Gamon on his retirement from @CALMIT_UNL and @SNR on July 1st. John will be an emeritus faculty member for CALMIT and continue work with the Center's remote sensing program.
The Nebraska satellite image puzzles have arrived & are a great learning tool to promote the state's geography and natural resources. Thanks to @NebraskaClimate, @CALMIT_UNL, @SNR for supporting this effort. Puzzles are available for outreach & educational events.

Congrats to Dr. Hugh Ellerman, a post-doctoral researcher @CALMIT_UNL, for receiving the 2026 UNL Postdoctoral Excellence Award. Job well done!
@UNLSNR@UNL_IANR
Great work by @CALMIT_UNL graduate student, Catherine Chan, studying grasslands in the Sandhills using advanced remote sensing techniques.

NASA in town for Harnessing the Heartland workshop. Participants from @UNLincoln@UNL_IANR@UNLSNR and from Oklahoma to Wisconsin. Can we coordinate our data collection efforts in innovative ways?
@BrianDWardlow & John Gamon of @CALMIT_UNL presenting the Center's drought, airborne remote sensing and ecological research activities at the Harnessing the Heartland conference with NASA, @unmc, @waterforfood & @UNLSNR.
New article published by John Gamon of @CALMIT_UNL looking at the linkage between biodiversity, ecosystems & carbon & perspectives on ecological opportunities for C sequestration.

CALMIT's airborne hyperspectral imagery over Indian Cave State Park is available through the NASA LP DAAC. CALMIT is applying these observations to better understand plant function, stress response & biodiversity of forests.

@CALMIT_UNL is proud to be a member of the @AmericaView consortium helping to advance the use of remote sensing imagery to document, understand & tell the story of global environmental change. A great day of learning at day 2 of AV annual meeting.
@UNLSNR@UNL_IANR@UNLresearch
NebraskaView & @CALMIT_UNL at the @AmericaView Annual Meeting in Lafayette, LA. NEView is a charter member of the national AV program & has worked to advance the practical use of satellite remote sensing within Nebraska for 20 years.

In honor of CALMITs 50th anniversary as global leader in remote sensing science, innovation & application in ag & natural resources, key contributions will be featured in Throwback Thursday spotlights. First up, founding of CALMIT as the Nebraska Center for Remote Sensing in 1973
New publication @TasosMazis et al. on the analysis of remote sensing & biophysical traits to assess pasture performance under different management practices. @CALMIT_UNL@UNL_IANR@UNLSNR @NebENREC
