New Strategy for Pacific Island Vegetation Mapping

Well, it’s finally the time — the time to “officially” retune our strategy for conducting the vegetation mapping project for the Pacific island. We kinda already have a rough idea what the new direction will look like. In fact, thanks to our generous partners in American Samoa, we have implemented a basic format of this new methodology recently and updated the maps for Tutuila and Manua Group for American Samoa. A summary for this recent experience is still in the works but hopefully will be coming out soon enough.

While in the mean time, I’m gonna start putting down some of my thoughts, albeit randomly, about the future works right here. It would be nice to get some discussions going the earlier the better. The more involvement we have from people on the ground, the better, for sure.

So, here it goes.
