Applying Remote Sensing for Large-landscape Problems: Inventorying and Tracking Habitat Recovery for a Broadly Distributed Species At Risk
Resource
Anthropogenic habitat alteration is leading to the reduction of global biodiversity. Consequently, there is an imminent need to understand the state and trend of habitat alteration across broad areas...
Monitoring Procedures for Wellsite, In-Situ Oil Sands and Coal Mine Reclamation in Alberta – December 2014 Update
Resource
Scope of the project is to develop a geomatics-based monitoring system to support the Government of Alberta’s efforts for monitoring reclamation success. Software will support decision making process
Recreational Trail Impacts on the Plant Communities of Castle and Castle Wildland Provincial Parks in Southern Alberta
Resource
I measured the effect of recreational trails on plant species richness, community composition, and the presence of exotic and rare species in the Castle Provincial Parks of Alberta, Canada, by...
Survivability and Growth of Winter-Planted Black Spruce (Picea mariana [Mill.] B.S.P.) Seedlings on a Boreal Fen in Northwestern Alberta, Canada
Resource
Winter planting of frozen black spruce seedlings was studied in a northern Alberta wetland supported by the Oil Sand Leadership Initiative (OSLI) Land Stewardship Working Group, comprised of...

Tree Species Mapping Around Reclaimed Oil and Gas Wells Sites Using Hyperspectral and Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) Remote Sensing
Resource
Oil and gas activities in Alberta require disturbing forested lands, among other ecosystems, in order to extract resources. Due to the number of oil and gas sites requiring reclamation, monitoring can...
Video - LiDAR and LAS Tools
Resource
This presentation provides insight and understanding to how LiDAR data is used to produce digital elevation models and vegetation maps.
Video - Overview of Airborne Laser Scanning
Resource
Chris Hopkinson gives an overview of how airborne laser scanning works, what type of data is collected, and how it can be used.
Video - Reclamation Monitoring: Eye in the Sky
Resource
Becky Doherty summarizes the role of remote sensing can play in monitoring the progress of reclamation on mining and well sites. She outlines the techniques that can be combined to monitor changes on reclaimed sites.
Video - Soil Moisture Estimation Using Polarmetric Radarsat-2 Data
Resource
This presentation discusses soil moisture estimation using polarimetric Radarsat-2 data and remote sensing as a fast, cost-effective method for mapping wide areas.
Video - Soil Science in Alberta: History & Direction
Resource
Dr. Ross McKenzie makes the case that the relationship between soil science researchers and agricultural producers (something we used to call extension or technology transfer) was a vibrant pipeline for innovation in Alberta.
