@Silvilaser23 lidR workshop materials are freely available online for those who couldn't be in London. Contents are pre-rendered on the website while scripts and data can be found in the github repo! Thanks to JR for the gift of lidR! @AlexisAchim @IRSS_UBC @IrwinLiam_UBC

The materials for a 3 hour lidR tutorial workshop by Tristan Goodbody are available at buff.ly/45KGYTJ. Check them out if you are interested in processing point cloud data. #rstats #lidar #rspatial

🗺️IRSS & Silva21 Scantique Roadshow update!🗺️ @IrwinLiam_UBC & crew are in northern Ontario with the Canadian Forests Service & @ONresources at the Romeo Malette Forest flying #lidar & multispectrial imagery! Watch them get to work 👇 #remotesensing #forestryresearch #forestry

Checking out the #LiDAR #PointCloud visualization tools from #QGIS. They are so cool ! 🥳 You can adjust color ramps, select different attributes, and create nice animations as you were flying above and/or into the forest. PS: can you spot some palm 🌴 or leafless 🍂 tree?

You’ve probably seen artists’ renderings of #Landsat satellites in orbit... but how about an *actual image* of a satellite in orbit? Thanks to Maxar, we now have images of Landsat 8 orbiting Earth from the WorldView-3 satellite. Enjoy! 🛰️
