The College of New Caledonia (CNC) and Lheidli T’enneh First Nation are building on a growing partnership through hands-on training in emerging technologies used in forestry and natural resource management. CNC’s Natural Resources and Forest Technology team recently delivered the first portion of a remote sensing boot camp for members of the Lheidli T’enneh forestry department. The training introduced participants to tools and techniques including drones, LiDAR, geographic information systems (GIS), satellite and multispectral technology, GPS data collection and forest inventory. The boot camp was developed following a LiDAR workshop held at CNC earlier this year. After participating in that session, the Lheidli T’enneh forestry team approached CNC about an opportunity to explore the technology and its applications in greater depth.
