Strengthening national forest monitoring based on the JJ-FAST and satellite technologies | Dr. Masanobu Shimada, Invited Researcher, EORC, JAXA / Professor, Architectural, Civil and Environmental Engineering, School of Science and Engineering, Tokyo Denki University, Japan Dr. Vũ Anh Tuȃn, Vice Director General, Vietnam National Space Center (VNSC), Vietnam |
Objective To discuss the subjects in implementing a sustainable forest monitoring in each country by using JJ-FAST and satellite technology, from a technical point of view. Eventually,1) Recommendation for efficient utilization methods of forest monitoring system, and system requirements for that, 2) Recommendation on expanding use by complex use of multiple forest monitoring systems, and 3) Recommendation on sustainable forest monitoring include of the future satellites. |
