About the project
Our aim is to interconnect scientific communities related to EO and biotic disturbances and enhance the knowledge transfer to local stakeholders. The project outcomes and outputs will provide the communication and knowledge transfer of the innovative existing expertise in the environmental application of the RS approach, solving multi-source detection of biotic disturbances, and offer the solution to the wider public, stakeholders of related land, and appropriate authorities. We want to actively participate in connecting knowledge, finding the possibilities of various data synergy, and providing the options and solutions to the users. This will allow a mutually beneficial relationship to share knowledge and apply the latest scientific approaches in practice.
