Andy Hudak, from the Department of Agriculture, United States Forest Service, presents a modelling framework applicable to a variety of forestry mapping applications. Hudak has used the framework particularly for forest biomass purposes. The presentation also touches on how this framework could be applicable to mapping pine beetle infestations.

In March 2012, over 300 people gathered in Edmonton to participate in a 2-day workshop about how LiDAR technology is being used in Alberta, and the potential future applications for LiDAR data. The Land-use Knowledge Network was able to record the presentations.
