DIVISION INVOLVED
Invasive plants in British Columbia are significantly impacting the province’s ecosystems, biodiversity, economy, and cultural practices and has proven to be a challenge to assess, monitor and manage.
Cabin has developed a specialized approach to help with this challenge by deploying a combination of RPAS (Remotely Piloted Aircraft System) and GIS (Geographic Information Systems).
By capturing high-resolution imagery and leveraging deep learning models, this enables our clients to accurately pinpoint the location and distribution of invasive species in remote, large areas that would otherwise be difficult to achieve.
Our project locations have included: Sidney Spit – Gulf Islands National Park Reserve, Vaseux Lake Migratory Bird Sanctuary, Alaksen National Wildlife Area, George C. Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary, Deer Lake Park and Widgeon Marsh Regional Park.
