Abstract
Integrated monitoring systems for forest biomass are necessary to estimate carbon stock changes in a forest area. This paper introduces airborne remote sensing technology to estimate the forest biomass and overview the development of aircraft platform for multiple sensors.
Although no specific forestration guidelines have been decided to utilize a cost-effective approach to ensure carbon dioxide emission curbing targets, technology development to detect carbon stock change should be carried out as priority strategy. This will bring the business opportunity, and also will contribute to global warming countermeasures.
