ForestTECH 2024 – additional workshops added

Friday 18 Oct 2024

 
On-site and virtual registrations to this year’s annual ForestTECH 2024 event continue to flow in. Note: Early-bird Registrations FINISH today though for those looking to take advantage of the discounted rates.

In addition to the international line-up of both local and international innovators who’ll be presenting for the first time to local foresters on remote sensing, forest data collection and mechanised and automated silviculture as part of the conference and exhibitions, additional workshops have been set up for this year’s delegates.

In Australia, both pre and post conference workshops have been set up. The first, a pre-conference workshop, Advances in Intelligent Forestry Planning that’s being run by Remsoft, will be previewing the latest advances in Remsoft’s Forest Intelligence Suite, and will feature use cases from forest industry speakers. The application of intelligence technologies, including optimization analytics, business intelligence and artificial intelligence, is adding more agility, precision and efficiency to forest management and operational planning.

And post conference, a short workshop titled the Hyperspectral Advantage in Forestry will be run by Pixxel Space Technologies. The diverse applications of hyperspectral imagery, including tree species classification, early detection of pest infestations, disease mapping, and monitoring of forest health and biodiversity will be discussed with a live demonstration given of Pixxel’s hyperspectral imagery, to highlight its capabilities in addressing diverse forestry scenarios and challenges.

Both Australian workshops are free to ForestTECH 2024 delegates in Melbourne on the 26-27 November.

And in New Zealand, as in previous annual ForestTECH events, a half day meeting is being run between 1.00 and 5.00pm by the Remote Sensing Cluster Group at Rydges Hotel.

Details on the ForestTECH 2024 workshops can be found on the workshops tab of the ForestTECH 2024 website. Conference programme & speaker details and further event information can also be found on the event website; ForestTECH 2024. The annual forest technology series begins in Rotorua, New Zealand on 20-21 November and then runs again in Melbourne, Australia on 26-27 November 2024.
