Enhancing Forest Recovery Monitoring With Remote Sensing

Monitoring forest recovery following a disturbance is important for understanding forest dynamics and informing forest management, restoration and climate mitigation. However, accurately and effectively monitoring forest recovery after a disturbance - and over a large area - is challenging, especially in areas that are difficult to access. This infographic, created as part of the Canadian Conservation and Land Management Knowledge Network's effort to share valuable conservation information and resources, highlights remote sensing techniques and datasets that can help monitor and guide forest management activities.
