Remote Sensing Forum

PNAMP wishes to support the interests of the community of aquatic monitoring partners in the application of remotely-sensed data. Topics of interest include types of remotely sensed data that are available and their sources, how these data can be used to answer specific monitoring needs, and how to best integrate aerial or satellite based data with monitoring data collected from direct or ground-sensor collected observations. Monitoring of habitat at a number of scales is of particular interest – watershed, bank, and instream.

In support of remote sensing PNAMP:

- Hosted a special session ‘Remote Sensing Applications for Aquatic Resource Monitoring’ at the 2008 ASPRS annual conference that included eleven presentations and a concluding expert panel discussion.
- Published a compilation of papers, "PNAMP Special Publication: Remote Sensing Applications for Aquatic Resource Monitoring".
- Reinstated the Remote Sensing Forum, a quarterly webinar venue where practitioners and users can learn about and discuss current topics and applications of remotely sensed data
