On 21 March, on “Forest Day”, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Dorota Iwaszczuk will give a talk on “Artificial intelligence in remote sensing for modelling forest layers: Focus on the undergrowth” at the Odenwaldakademie in Erbach's House of Energy.

Prof. Dorota Iwaszczuk

Forests are of particular importance for the climate and for humans. In order to better understand and protect these important ecosystems, it is necessary to record the forest structure in as much detail as possible. In contrast to time-consuming, conventional inspections, remote sensing measurement methods can provide large-scale data in a short space of time. The challenge here lies in the automated interpretation of the data. Can the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) help us to interpret the data better and faster and thus better understand the forests? Prof. Iwaszczuk will talk about this on 21 March 2024 at 7 pm at the Odenwaldakademie.

The Odenwaldakademie has existed since 1991 as a co-operation between the TU Darmstadt and the rural Odenwald district. The aim is to strengthen and promote communication between science and the public in both directions. More information can be found under this Link
