Amazing turnout in the session! Thank you all for attending! 👏👏👏

“BIOSPACE25 is the FIRST international conference dedicated entirely to space-based observation of biodiversity”

👏👏👏

This one site had virtually ZERO canopy cover. Ash and Oak decline is deeply impacting the forest.

As you might expect, TanDEM-X height estimates improve across the board with a higher threshold of GEDI shots per calibrated grid cell - but the tradeoff is a reduced number of observations. Finding this balance can depend on the availability of GEDI data.

Compared to other optical products the TanDEM-X SAR canopy height is unaffected by clouds and was LESS biased and LESS prone to saturation in maximum canopy height estimates.

Glorious talk from Anthony Campbell mapping estuary biodiversity in South Africa. 👏👏👏
