Recent advancements in satellite technology, specifically GEDI and ICESat-2, have enhanced our ability to measure forest canopy height from space. This capability is crucial for assessing forest health, carbon storage, and habitat quality. By integrating various data sources, researchers are now creating comprehensive maps to support conservation efforts and climate research.
The CHIME mission aims to revolutionise environmental monitoring by utilising over 200 spectral bands, far exceeding the 13 bands of Sentinel-2. This hyperspectral capability will enhance the analysis of crops, soils, and ecosystems, thereby supporting sustainable agriculture, food security, and biodiversity while transforming workflows for remote sensing professionals.
