Electronic monitoring of forests
Forests are protected by lasers and digital cameras
Why not to miss the presentation?
Slovakia is one of Europe's most wooded countries. We have to protect this wealth. It is no longer enough to control the state of forests through walks of rangers. You will learn about technologies and software used to protect this wealth.
Executive summary:
The presentation will briefly talk about fulfilled objectives, technical solution and benefits the project of Monitoring and research of forest ecosystems funded by Swiss Financial Mechanism brought the organization itself and its main users. These data have huge information potential and the presentation will show possible use of outputs from these data with focus on their use in public administration.
