Grants and Contributions

By creating software and providing training courses for First Nations communities, the project seeks to empower local stakeholders in monitoring and managing their marine territories more effectively, aligning with Canada's marine protection targets and strategies.

This project aims to address the rapid disappearance of grasslands, particularly due to woody plant encroachment (WPE), which has become the second most significant cause of grassland loss after land conversion to cropping. By leveraging advanced technology and diverse satellite imagery, the project seeks to develop methods to accurately estimate woody plant cover, detect WPE at an early stage, investigate driving factors, identify vulnerable regions, and assess the economic and environmental benefits of WPE detection on Canadian grasslands, ultimately providing a comprehensive understanding and methodologies for WPE detection and its impacts.

This project aims to create detailed 3D models of Canada's vast forests using satellite data and computer algorithms, improving the coverage of fine-detailed data across large areas.

This project aims to leverage satellite Earth Observation data to advance forest carbon quantification, addressing the urgent need for accurate information on carbon sequestration and fostering expertise in climate change mitigation. By improving understanding of carbon dynamics, developing AI methods for carbon estimation, and assessing forest management impacts, the project aims to elevate the application readiness level of developed methods and contribute to informed decision-making, benefiting both the environment and Canadian communities while raising awareness of EO and climate science through outreach activities.
