About This Project
We are exploring the use of drones to collect point cloud data in order to quantify forest fire hazard within the Wildland Urban Interface. The goal is to create an accurate 3-D model of the forest and collect a variety of forest attributes. If successful, this method can be used to assist private land owners and the government to accurately identify areas of high fire hazard in their communities, neighborhoods, and forests.
