After the final dispositions on all submissions to a special issue are made and accepted articles published, a virtual special issue will be published on this page.
Participants of the technical session T5.8 “Developments in complex remote sensing-assisted forest surveys to support monitoring and assessment of forest ecosystems” at the IUFRO World Congress Stockholm, Sweden in June 2024 may submit a manuscript based on their talk in the meeting. The special issue and technical session are organised by the IUFRO Working Group 04.02.00 - Forest resources inventory and monitoring.
The session is focused on mobilizing research and technology to develop credible, easy-to-understand, and user-friendly knowledge systems and platforms that can help researchers and practitioners conduct broad-scale forest inventories. It is distinctively conceived to give participants hands-on experience with remote sensing-assisted forest inventory applications for monitoring and assessing forest ecosystems on a large scale.
