GeoFit uses LiDAR and aerial photography to map vast Chilean forests (350k-600k ha/year). This data-driven approach supports sustainable forestry, preserving biodiversity like the Araucaria.
By combining LiDAR, hyperspectral data, and on-site investigations, each species and tree can be precisely identified and georeferenced, facilitating precise monitoring of vegetation changes, including that of the Chilean Araucaria. |
