Trying to find trees in LiDAR data? Problem: 100s of algorithms but hard to assess their accuracy Solution: use segmented TLS to label trees in ALS, then compare algorithms. Paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.jag.… James Ball Phil Wilkes Kim Calders Mathias Disney @Silvilaser23

We’re measuring carbon storage across our landscape 🌳 Using high-tech drones, LiDAR and soil sampling techniques, we're getting closer to our landscape than ever before 🌍 See our Nature Unlocked carbon team in action ⬇

Love forests? like lasers? excited about radiative transfer? me, Niall Origo NPL and Phil Wilkes wakehurst are looking for a new #phd student to study structural dynamics with multitemporal laser scanning Cambridge Geography : nercdtp.esc.cam.ac.uk/projects/ce516…

PART 1 //🐝🌿Our #pollination pioneers have been investigating bee populations across Wakehurst, with insect counts and transect walks, to find out which plants and habitats provide the most benefits. Tune in for part 2 soon 👀 This research is funded by Mount Anvil and Partners

It has been a great year of scanning for team 🌳 TLS TREES 🌳 🌳 back in May we embarked on the Woodland Trust🌳 funded #SCATTER project. One of our faves was Wyesham Oak, Monmouth, here reimagined for 🎄🎅 Sketchfab: skfb.ly/oOHrP

Great talk from Phil Wilkes on how we need to work on synergies between biodiversity and other ecosystem properties. Big programme Wakehurst tackling this for southern UK habitats #BES2023

Over 500k redwoods thrive in the UK, 5x more than the endangered 80k mature trees remaining in their native California 🌲🌲🌲 Our new #openaccess study with UCL maps 5000 UK-grown trees that belong to the largest redwood of all - the giant sequoia 👇 doi.org/10.5061/dryad.…

We’ve been working in the #wetwoodland at Wakehurst today installing dipwells for hydrological monitoring as part of the Wet Woodlands Research Network research network and supporting Steph Batten (she/her)’s PhD. I’m excited to see what the data show!

Quote of the day from Wakehurst ecosystem observatory launch: Trees are such good pollen and nectar sources that we should think of them as ‘sky meadows’! Highlight of the day was the wet woodland plot - see 📸 Thanks Phil Wilkes for inviting Woodland Trust🌳
