Status |
| Develop LIDAR/IFSAR canopy fuels
estimators |
Regression models for canopy fuel variables
were developed and published for both LIDAR and IFSAR, based on the Capitol
Forest Study site. |
Done |
| Regression models for the Mission Creek FFS
site and combined Capitol Forest and Mission Creek site will be developed.
A publication will be submitted in Dec. 2006. |
Dec. 2006 |
| Develop LIDAR/IFSAR processing
software |
The Fusion visualization system was developed
to allow users to display LIDAR or IFSAR 3D data with tradition 2D imagery
(e.g., orthophotos, satellite images, maps). |
Done |
| The LIDAR Data Visualization (LDV) suite was
developed to allow display, ground and canopy surface generation, and direct
3D measurements from LIDAR (and IFSAR) datasets. |
Done |
| LIDAR processing software
distribution & training website |
In conjunction with RSAC a website was
developed for distribution and training of the LIDAR processing and
visualization software:
http://www.fs.fed.us/eng/rsac/fusion/ |
Done |
| A project website is available at:
http://www.cfr.washington.edu/research.pfc/research/jfsp/ |
Done |
| The Canopy Fuels Estimator (CFE) software suite
will be completed and distributed in Fall 2006. |
Oct. 2006 |
| Workshops |
LIDAR/IFSAR results were presented at 11
workshops (see Appendix B for detailed list). |
Done |
| A ½-day workshop on the LIDAR Canopy Fuel
Estimator has been proposed for the 2nd Fire Behavior and Fuels Conference
in March 2007, targeted for fuels managers and fire remote sensing
specialists. |
March 2007 |
| Presentations |
35 presentations to federal, state, local,
academic, and professional groups were made, including 7 presentations at
international meetings. |
Done |
| Archived Database |
An archive of all ground and remote sensing
data was created and is stored at the University of Washington. |
Done |
| Published Outputs |
5 journal articles and 1 book chapter were
published. |
Done |
| 1 journal article is in review. |
Done |
| 2 additional journal articles are planned for
submission. |
Dec. 2006 |
| 12 proceedings papers were published. |
Done |
| PNW Science Update highlighting LIDAR for
vegetation measurement was published for more general audiences. |
