For several years now, drones have been used in Earth observation. This particularly important application of the technology requires highly specialized methodologies that combine elements of robotics, computer vision, and applications in agriculture and forestry. he UAV-G conference centered precisely on this intersection of disciplines.

Our group contributed to the event with a poster titled “Remote Sensing Upside Down: Exploring the Potential of Ground-Based Multispectral Cameras for Tree Crown Monitoring” by Mona Goebel, Lukas Wolf, Frederik Packwitz, and Dorota Iwaszczuk, which was presented in Espoo by Mona Goebel.

The event, hosted by Aalto University, was organized by the ISPRS working groups ICWG I/IIa and ICWG I/IV. Local coordination was led by Prof. Eija Honkavaara from the National Land Survey of Finland. Prof. Dr.-Ing. Dorota Iwaszczuk, together with six other researchers, served on the Executive Committee of the conference.
