Coordination and Development of Infomation from Image data in Nordic Landscape Level Monitoring
|
|
|
NordLaM (Nordic Landscape Monitoring)
is a project for coordination of the use of information derived from remote sensing
image data in terrestrial landscape level monitoring across the Nordic countries.
The project involves networking, exchange of information, ideas and experiences and method development.
NordLaM is supported by the Danish National
Environmental Research Institute (DMU) and the Environmental Monitoring and Data working group of
the Nordic Council of Ministers.

In NordLaM, the place of remote sensing is seen in terms of the use of the information derived from image data.
In this context, the characteristics of such information are seen as at least as important as largely technical aspects regarding
image data and their processing and analysis. For example, examination of how the thematic characteristics of
landscape information derived from images interface with the charactistics of other landscape level monitoring data, such as
from field survey. An aim therefore is to strike a balance between technical and application issues, to develop constructive and
informed dialogue between RS/GIS specialists and non-specialists. |
| The 'audience' for NordLaM is: |
 |
|
those using image data in Nordic landscape monitoring work |
|
|
those undertaking related monitoring activities |
|
|
those requiring overview of Nordic monitoring related activities |
