Modeling Salt Marsh Vegetation Height Using Unoccupied Aircraft Systems and Structure from Motion

Modeling Salt Marsh Vegetation Height Using Unoccupied Aircraft Systems and Structure from Motion

Salt marshes provide important services to coastal ecosystems in the southeastern United States. In many locations, salt marsh habitats are threatened by coastal development and erosion, necessitating large-scale monitoring. Assessing vegetation height across the extent of a marsh can provide a comp...
