Resource
This presentation discusses the need for a multi-level classification for boreal wetlands and accurate change detection.
Video - Alberta Water Extent Monitoring Pilot Study
Resource
This presentation discusses the Alberta water extent monitoring pilot study, with the goal to create a database that has the potential for implementation at a provincial level.
Video - Bathymetric LiDARs for Hydrographic Mapping
Resource
This presentation talks about Bathymetric LiDARs for Hydrographic Mapping with a focus on ALTM systems and data fusion.
Video - Functional Environmental Flows: A Practical Strategy for Healthy Rivers
Resource
This presentation describes how focusing on functional flows versus typical water conservation management could improve aquatic in-stream ecosystems while meeting current water allocations.
Video - LiDAR & Water Resources Applications
Resource
Dr. Chris Hopkinson introduces a series of seven videos that covers the topic of LiDAR and its application in water resources planning and monitoring.
Video - LiDAR and LAS Tools
