Field notes
The lab organizes its work around a field-to-space workflow, linking biodiversity observations and experimental data to UAV surveys, LiDAR, imaging spectroscopy, satellite Earth observation, GIS, and spatial modelling. Its public-facing structure includes project pages, a visual archive, WebGIS, publications, teaching, outreach, and news. Recent updates mention a three-month visiting researcher from the Sahelian rangeland field and a new digital platform for connecting the lab’s research areas.
