    Name(s): Creator (cre): Williams, Griffin, Thesis advisor (ths): Franklin, Steven E, Degree committee member (dgc): Schaefer, James, Degree committee member (dgc): Gibson, Carey, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>The forestry sector has a well-developed history of using remote sensing to identify structural characteristics of forests and to detect and attribute changes that occur in forested landscapes. Monitoring the recovery of disturbed forests is an important factor in long term forest management. However, forest that is recovered spectrally may not be recovered when considered in terms of a… more

    Proximal Soil Nutrient Sensing in Croplands through Multispectral Imaging from Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) for Precision Agriculture Applications

    Year: 2020, 2020

    Name(s): Creator (cre): Wrozyna, Mason Walter, Thesis advisor (ths): Ponce-Hernandez, Raul, Degree committee member (dgc): Gibson, Carey, Degree committee member (dgc): Franklin, Steven E, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>Currently, UAVs are deployed to measure crop health in a timely manner by mapping vegetation indices. A study using two different fields was conducted in order to search for a relationship that may exist between crop health and soil fertility. A UAV equipped with sensor technology was used for mapping of vegetation indices which were then statistically compared to soil nutrient data… more

    A methodological framework for the assessment and monitoring of forest degradation under the REDD+ programme based on remote sensing techniques and field data

    Name(s): Creator (cre): Romero Sanchez, Martin Enrique, Thesis advisor (ths): Ponce Hernandez, Raul, Degree committee member (dgc): Franklin, Steven E., Degree committee member (dgc): Gibson, Carey, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>In this thesis, a methodological framework for the assessment and monitoring of forest degradation based on remote sensing techniques and field data, as part of the REDD+ programme, is presented. The framework intends to support the implementation of a national Monitoring, Verification and Report (MRV) system in developing countries. The framework proposed an operational definition of… more
