SUMMARY:PNAMP Remote Sensing Forum
DESCRIPTION:Watch the recording\nFeatured Presentations\nNatasha Nahirnick (Ecofish Research): Mapping with confidence; delineating seagrass habitats using Remotely Piloted Aerial Systems (RPAS) \n\nRemotely Piloted Aerial Systems (RPAS) are valuable tools for mapping and monitoring seagrass habitats because of their acquisition flexibility\, relatively low cost\, and ability to capture very high-resolution imagery. However\, seagrass habitats can be extremely difficult to image\, particularly when submerged. Various environmental and site-specific factors interfere with the image quality outcomes\, ultimately leading to mapping products that are less dependable. In this talk\, we will explore the variables that impact the quality of RPAS imagery in coastal British Columbia\, Canada\, and other temperate regions\, and discuss the optimal parameters in which to collect imagery to confidently map submerged seagrass meadows.\nNatasha Nahirnick is an environmental scientist with Ecofish Research Ltd. specializing in coastal and aquatic habitat mapping. Her experience includes extensive work with NGOs\, First Nations\, and academia mapping eelgrass\, saltmarsh\, and kelp habitats on the BC coast\, using a variety of platforms including aerial photography\, satellite imagery\, and RPAS. Before joining Ecofish\, her graduate research involved long-term eelgrass change assessment in the Salish Sea using historic aerial photography and identifying watershed land use and other anthropogenic stressors on the coastal environment.\n\nTara Blackman and Tulley Mackey (Mount Hood Environmental): Oregon Spotted Frog Habitat Suitability Monitoring in Central Oregon Wetlands \n\nMount Hood Environmental is using UAV derived photogrammetry paired with on-the-ground vegetation surveys to map Oregon Spotted Frog suitable habitat. This data will be used for status and trend monitoring related to water use practices in the Deschutes watershed in central Oregon.\nTara Blackman is a senior scientist at Mount Hood Environmental\, specializing in aquatic ecology and fisheries research. Tara holds a M.S. in Fisheries Science from Oregon State University and has conducted ecological research throughout the Pacific Northwest and in Southern Chile. Her interests include life-history responses of salmonids to environmental disturbance and population dynamics across environmental gradients.\nTulley Mackey is a fisheries biologist at Mount Hood Environmental and is currently earning a M.S. in Water Resources Science and Engineering from the University of Idaho. Tulley enjoys working with spatial data to assess aquatic habitats and inform restoration efforts.

SUMMARY:PNAMP Remote Sensing Forum
DESCRIPTION:Watch the recording\nFeatured Presentations\nDr. Sarah Hoffmann (Merck Animal Health): Smart Salmon Database: A collaborative platform for salmon habitat data sharing and insights \n\nThe Smart Salmon Database is a scalable remote-sensing\, imagery-based (e.g.\, drones\, satellite\, LiDAR\, etc.) monitoring tool where salmon habitat data can be uploaded\, downloaded\, analyzed\, and shared. Advances in the accessibility and application of remote sensing techniques to environmental monitoring have greatly broadened the geographical scope and inference of habitat programs\, directly benefitting the recovery of endangered species. With the launch of the Smart Salmon Database\, we aim to (1) provide a solution for reliable\, long-term imagery data storage and access; (2) prevent duplicative efforts by democratizing access to imagery across space and time; and\, (3) foster collaboration and innovation in the remote sensing and conservation communities. By making these data accessible and reliable\, we are one step further in the recovery of these culturally\, economically\, and ecologically important salmon species.\nSarah graduated with a B.S. in Biological Sciences from Clemson University and a M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Integrative Biology from Florida Atlantic University. In her graduate degrees\, she focused on exploring the interplay between fish biology (biomechanics\, physiology)\, habitat use\, and phylogenetic context. She also worked to develop novel methods for quantifying free-swimming kinematics of large fishes to better quantify volitional habitat interaction. After receiving her degrees\, she worked as a fisheries scientist for the applied biological services division of Biomark before it was acquired by Merck Animal Health. She currently leads scientific marketing efforts to support Merck Animal Health’s biopharmaceutical and technology portfolio for aquaculture\, conservation\, and fisheries.\n\nChris Crosby (OpenTopography): OpenTopography: Enabling Access to High Resolution Topography \n\nTopographic data such as lidar and structure from motion photogrammetry have transformed geoscience research and education. OpenTopography is an initiative supported by the National Science Foundation that strives to streamline hosting\, discovery\, and processing of topographic data\, with web-based tools for data visualization\, custom product generation\, and advanced analysis such as hydrologic routing and topographic differencing. Presently\, lidar covering >85% of the Lower 48 US states\, as well as lower resolution global topographic data are available through OpenTopography. This presentation will provide an overview of OpenTopography\, available data and resources\, and examples of OpenTopography data in action.\nChris Crosby manages day-to-day operations of the OpenTopography Facility. Trained as a geologist\, he has worked on paleoseismology\, earthquake geology\, and active tectonics research in the western US\, Caribbean\, and Central Asia. He is interested in utilization of cyberinfrastructure to manage and improve access to earth science data and processing tools. Chris is an expert in the management\, distribution\, processing\, and application of high-resolution topography acquired via lidar (Light Detection and Ranging) technology and has guided the development of OpenTopography since its inception. In addition to his work on OpenTopography\, Chris also manages Geodetic Imaging (Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS)\, photogrammetry\, and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)) at EarthScope Consortium in Boulder\, CO.
