Still want to make cleaning biodiversity data shrimp-ler? 🦐 Good news: We just updated our Cleaning Biodiversity Data in R book, so you still can! We've updated data for 2025, added new content & fixed lots of silly typos 😀 Live the shrimp-le life: cleaning-data-r.ala.org.au #rstats #ecology 🧪🌏

A new semester kicks off this week at Berlin’s universities - back to campus vibes! 🎓✨ Our team is ready for a winter term of teaching GIS & remote sensing at Lankwitz. Wishing students & lecturers alike a semester full of learning, discovery & good energy! 🚀📚🌍 #FreieUniversität #BackToCampus

Great to see so many #PlantScience journals, societies, and institutions here. Tag in if we missed one!

We were delighted to host a research exchange with colleagues from @CzechGlobe 🇨🇿 in Berlin! 🌍 We discussed forestry-focused remote sensing, explored opportunities for future collaboration, and visited study sites like the #sensorfield in Brandenburg. 🌲📡 Thanks for the great visit! #TeamScience

20 plots, hundreds of #Riegl TLS scans, thousands of berries… 🌲🫐 and a million laughs. Norway field campaign = success! 💪 Now we are back in Berlin and ready to process our data. Shoutout to our amazing field crew: Arvin, Asad, Chiara, Ephraim, Johann, Marius & Miriam! #RonnieRieglOnTour

Our fieldwork is in full go – our team is out in the woods every day batteling rain, swamps, sheep and running from cows – the dangers you find in northern Europe 😉 – all with the #Riegl on our shoulders. But check out these stunning views we get in return! It’s all worth it. #RonnieRieglOnTour

We are getting ready to head to Norway! 🌲🌾🌲 Our team will collect terrestrial laser scanning data to on the connection between forest structure and biodiversity – we are looking forward to two weeks in the beautiful boreal forest north of Oslo. And we are prepared for swampy conditions 😉

🛰️ Spending 5 months at the Remote Sensing Lab, Freie Universität, to advance my research on protected area management. Grateful for this opportunity and looking forward to the Norway field trip with this amazing team! – chiaramansi93.bsky.social 🌳 #remotesensing #conservation #Erasmus+ #biodiversity

On our idyllic GeoCampus Lankwitz, smart sensors track tree growth, soil moisture & light of some of our many trees. TLS scans turn trees like "Rosie" 🌳 the chestnut into stunning 3D models 👓. #TTN #SmartForestry #IoT #TreeGrowth #LoRaWAN #ForestEcology #SensingFUB

🌳 In Brandenburg, we’ve set up a TTN-connected station to monitor soil moisture & light intensity—exploring how these factors affect young oak seedlings growing under mature pines. Stay tuned for more news from our #sensorfield! #SmartForestry #IoT #TreeGrowth #LoRaWAN #ForestEcology #SensingFUB

🌲 Meet Hua (shorturl.at/3DGFl), one of our PhD researcher! His research focuses on generating high-quality virtual point clouds that realistically include lower vegetation. This helps improve tasks like semantic segmentation and biomass estimation. Smarter, more reliable ecological AI starts here.

Considering land use complexity and overlap is critical for sustainability planning. New paper led by Marie Pratzer - out in OneEarth: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @tkuemmerle.bsky.social @matthiasbaumann.bsky.social @pedrofernandez91.bsky.social @oneearthofficial.bsky.social

LAST CALL📣 for early bird registration! These rates will NOT be extended 💸 Prices go up July 2! Students (MSc/PhD): $650 early bird/$750 regular Standard registration (including PDF): $950 early bird/$1,150 regular See you in Quebec Sep 29-Oct 3! ⚜️ event.fourwaves.com/silvilaser2025/pages

📣 Just a few days to go! Join us this Saturday, June 28 at #LNDW2025 in the Theaterhof of the Silberlaube @FUBerlin. As a special add on we’ll be showcasing a small art project by ZK/U fellows, created in collaboration with us: Visual Cultures of Forest Carbon - www.zku-berlin.org/fellows/754/ 🌳🌲

🌲 Curious about what trees do for us—and how we can measure it? Visit us at #LNDW2025 in the Theaterhof of the Silberlaube #FUBerlin on June 28th! Together we use our new laser scanner to turn trees into 3D models to study their health, structure, & carbon storage. Don’t miss it! 🌳

Just picked up my poster! Off to Vienna tomorrow—can’t wait to share my work in the "Advances in Monitoring and Management of Forest Ecosystems" session next Friday. Come say hi if you're around! 🌲🔥🛰️ #LPS25

Three of us—@ffassnacht.bsky.social , @miriamher.bsky.social & @HuaJiang—are heading to the Living Planet Symposium in Vienna next week! We will present on forest practitioners' requirements for remote sensing-based products and modeling surface fuels from 3D TLS Data. Hope to see you there!🌍 #LPS25

Hello everyone! We’re the Remote Sensing & Geoinformatics Group at FU Berlin. We study trees and ecosystems using tech like LiDAR, satellites & AI. From forests to cities, we’re all about research, learning, teaching and collaboration. Excited to share our journey with you! 🌳📡💥🛸🛰️🤓💻🌍
