About This Webinar
Monitoring from the air can be a great solution for land trusts who are struggling with COVID restrictions or who need to monitor large numbers of properties with a small staff or cadre of volunteers. But where to start? In this webinar, Jake Faber, Land Trust Alliance, and Naomi Houle, Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests, discuss how to get a program started and provide tips for successful remote monitoring programs. As an added bonus, we will share information about upcoming training and grant opportunities the Alliance will be offering to support land trusts that are interested in using remote monitoring technologies.
Here’s a look at what we will cover:
How to implement a monitoring program as a supplement to ground monitoring, including meeting accreditation requirements
How to identify a technology partner to provide imagery
How to determine image requirements for adequate monitoring - restriction dependent
What to include in a remote imagery monitoring report
How to address landowner concerns
