Challenges Faced
Cadastral Data Limitations - Impossibility to use cadastral data effectively due to access restrictions or formatting inconsistencies, hindering precise property boundary delineation.
Environmental Variability - Significant environmental variability affecting data consistency across acquisition campaigns, requiring robust normalization techniques for reliable analysis.
Impact (Socio-economic & Environmental)
Environmental Impact
Significantly improved situational awareness for illegal logging monitoring operations. By integrating UAV data with AI analytics, the system allows for faster detection of canopy variations and potential unauthorized harvesting activities, contributing to forest preservation efforts.
Socio-economic
Strategic support for more informed planning of inspection activities and resource allocation. Optimizing patrol routes and focusing human resources on high-risk areas reduces operational costs and increases the effectiveness of law enforcement and forest management bodies.
