Invasive Species Management in the Sacramento San Joaquin Valley

Invasive Species Management in the Sacramento San Joaquin Valley Customer Challenge For many years, we have known the threat and adverse effects of invasive plant species on our ecosystem. Long after these species have been introduced, the original populations can continue to spread virally and negatively affect other areas. Scientists needed a unique method of providing a comprehensive baseline for documenting the distribution of the invasive species. Solution Achieved With advanced satellite imaging and image analysis software capabilities scientists can detect the presence of these populations and chart their growth. By developing cost-effective and non-intrusive monitoring and mapping methods, we can begin to understand the significant threat that these plants pose to biological diver
