We are looking for participants to take part in a survey being conducted regarding perception of landuse and landcover (#LULC) in #Yungay #Chile

We would greatly appreciate your participation: https://t.co/lPF9j25Otv

Millions of tons of plastic enter the oceans every year, ending up on remote beaches. Our recent article on using spectral signatures to detect these plastics has been recognised as the cover story for the Nov issue of #MDPI #RemoteSensing! https://t.co/DON4tWuiaN @Jenna_Guffogg

[Professor Coffee @ProfCoffeeRMIT]

Visiting the Cocos Keeling Islands we studied plastic debris washed up by ocean currents. Spectral features from plastics can be used to detect contaminated areas and potentially be used for future remote sensing missions to detect plastics on coastlines.

Identification and preservation of koala habitat is crucial to their protection. Using field data, we examined the accuracy of 4 broad-scale low-resolution koala habitat maps in southeast QLD to see if they correctly depict food resources.

The emergence of UAS and compact sensors (RGB and LiDAR) provide new opportunities to map fire severity. Collaborating with @TerraLuma we tested their utility to map severity in a sedgeland transition zone in Tasmania https://t.co/Xq5ysbjGKP #fire #severity #uas @SamCHillman1

Through a case study in Chile, South America, we have explored how the perception of landscape is influenced by the growing accessibility of satellite imagery data.

We are currently conducting a short anonymous survey that aims to capture the current requirements and challenges with the collection of forest inventory metrics and how low-cost sensors may help.

Image-based and LiDAR point clouds were captured using terrestrial and UAS platforms to compare below-canopy structural information. Using novel classification methods we concluded that below-canopy structure is present in TLS and UAS LiDAR point clouds.

Using the Microsoft Azure Kinect we captured individual stem DBH measurements of urban trees to determine the optimal #urbanforestry capture settings for this low-cost RGB-D technology. Check it out here: https://t.co/4qs7gO7hTA

Members of the RMIT remote sensing lab have been making the most of their time in stage-4 quarantine. Masters of Geospatial Science student Andy @Whity720 has taken to baking bagels alongside examining the structural and spectral qualities of vegetation from point clouds! #bagels

Working alongside @CSIRO we present a novel method for deploying Argo Floats so they rest on the seabed between profiles. Float depth and seabed bathymetry are used to estimate float location. We hope this method can be utilised to track floats below ice https://t.co/EXvEKnD8V2.
