A NEW AGE OF BIG TREE HUNTING IN TASMANIA
LiDAR 2.0 folks! @jarno.corig is redefining the way to Tasmanian big tree community is using LiDAR to find big trees. Traditionally LiDAR forest scans have been used to find tall trees. But Jan has been working on a new way to interpret the raw data and refining a method to use it to find the big volumetric trees.
Tasmania’s volumetric giants are… Typically much older, have had their crowns snapped out by the wild weather and have spent much of their energy generating massive trunk girth rather than try to reach for the skies again.
These types of trees are often hidden in the forest canopy. Jan’s methods are revealing these trees. Jan has a list of 100 new targets to ground truth so if you want to go on a mish let us know we can definitely give you a target or twenty!
