SUMMARY:High Resolution Wet Areas Mapping (WAM) for Maine
DESCRIPTION:Registration is now open for the ‘High Resolution Wet Areas Mapping (WAM) for Maine’ workshop and field tour!  \nWe are excited to be collaborating with the Forest Watershed Research Center at the University of New Brunswick – Fredericton\, the Barbara Wheatland Geospatial Analysis Laboratory at the University of Maine\, and the Geospatial Information Technology Center at the University of Maine Presque Isle to host this workshop and field tour on high resolution wet areas mapping. We have a great line-up of speakers and look forward to discussing opportunities for Maine! \nThis is a ONE DAY workshop that is being offered in two different locations on consecutive days. Please only register for one of the two dates. \nThis workshop is free for CFRU members (including email addresses ending in .gov)\, and $120 for all others. \nThis workshop is pending approval for 5.5 SAF Cat 1 CFE credits through the Society of American Foresters. \nClick here to register! \nSpace is limited – sign up soon! \nOrono Workshop (includes Lowland N. White Cedar Study Tour):\nWhen: Tuesday\, June 11th\, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.\nWhere: Barbara Wheatland Geospatial Analysis Laboratory\, Orono\, Maine and the Penobscot Experimental Forest\, Bradley\, Maine. \nPresque Isle Workshop:\nWhen: Wednesday\, June 12th\, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.\nWhere: Geospatial Information Technology Center\, Presque Isle\, Maine and Irving Woodlands harvest site\, T16R4\, Maine. \nPresenters: \n\nMr. Tony Guay\, University of Maine Barbara Wheatland Geospatial Analysis Laboratory\nMr. David Sandilands\, University of Maine Barbara Wheatland Geospatial Analysis Laboratory\nMr. Herb Bergquist\, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service\nDr. Paul Arp\, University of New Brunswick Forest Watershed Research Center\nMr. Jae Ogilvie\, Univiersity of New Brunswick Forest Watershed Research Center\nDr. Shane Furze\, University of New Brunswick Forest Watershed Research Center\nDr. Laura Kenefic\, U.S. Forest Service\nDr. Anil Khiza\, University of Maine School of Forest Resources\nMr. Tom Gilbert\, Maine Forest Service\nMr. Matt Stedman\, J.D. Irving Woodlands\n\nBackground and Details:\nExisting digital spatial information related to hydrologic features and their associated habitats on the landscape do not provide sufficient detail and accuracy for making informed\, confident decisions relative to our natural resources\, local and regional economies\, and infrastructure. \nAttendees at this workshop will learn how to use LiDAR-based wet-areas mapping (WAM) tools to increase the efficiency of forest management activities such as implementing BMP’s and reducing road construction/maintenance costs. In Canada\, harvest planning\, layout\, and environmental performance evaluation costs have all dropped significantly on account of comprehensive\, and fairly precise\, flow-channel and cartographic depth-to-water table mapping. These Maine statewide WAM products are offered free of charge to CFRU members. There will also be an introduction to the future of digital soil mapping and how this tool can support planning applications\, such as seasonality of operations\, trafficability\, wetland and habitat assessments\, stream crossings\, and layout of trails and unpaved access routes. There will be a hands on\, interactive indoor computer/GIS session for the morning and a field trip to recently harvested operational sites in the afternoon. The June 11th workshop in Orono will visit a cedar harvest study in the Penobscot Experimental Forest and the June 12th workshop in Presque Isle will visit an operational harvest on Irving Woodlands in T16R4. There will be a live demonstration of high resolution Image capture in support of WAM using UAV technology by The Wheatland Lab at each workshop. \nIntended Participants: \nCross-section of professionals and the public involved with and concerned about the sustainable management of Maine’s forests\, including state and federal foresters\, forest industry\, academia\, NGOs\, and forestry certification system staff. \nProgram:\nTuesday\, June 11th: Orono Workshop\nBarbara Wheatland Geospatial Analysis Laboratory\, Orono\, Maine and the Penobscot Experimental Forest\, Bradley\, Maine. \n\n\n\nTime\nItem\nPresenter\n\n\nGIS Lab\n\n\n\n8:00 AM – 8:15 AM\nRegistration\, Coffee and Doughnuts\n\n\n\n8:15 AM – 8:30 AM\nWelcome and Workshop Overview\nRoth\n\n\n8:30 AM – 8:40 AM\nBarbara Wheatland Lab overview – Products and Services\nGuay\n\n\n8:40 AM – 9:00 AM\nDigital elevation models – derived from LiDAR and Structure from Motion\nSandilands\n\n\n9:00 AM – 9:30 AM\nNew Initiatives in Automated Wetland Delineation\nBergquist\n\n\n9:30 AM – 10:10 AM\nConceptual Overview: Wet Areas Mapping\nArp\n\n\n10:10 AM – 10:25 AM\nBreak \n\n\n\n10:25 AM – 11:05 AM\nIndividual Mapping Exercises\nOgilvie\n\n\n11:05 AM – 11:45 AM\nLinkage between Wet Areas and Digital Soil Mapping\nFurze\n\n\n11:45 AM – 1:00 PM\nTravel (University Vans from Orono)\, Lunch and sUAS Demonstation\n\n\n\nField Tour\n\n\n\n\n1:00 PM – 1:15 PM\nWelcome and Introduction to the Penobscot Experimental Forest\nKenefic\n\n\n1:15 PM – 2:00 PM\nIntroduction and Early Findings: Lowland Northern White Cedar Study\nKenefic/Kizha\n\n\n2:00 PM – 2:45 PM\nBest Management Practices and Stream Crossings\nGilbert\n\n\n2:45 PM – 3:30 PM\nApplication of WAM in Operations\nArp\n\n\n3:30 PM – 3:45 PM\nWorkshop Wrap-up and Final Discussion\nRoth/Arp\n\n\n3:45 PM – 4:30 PM\nTravel (University Vans to Nutting Hall)\n\n\n\n4:30 PM – 4:30 PM\n\n\n\n\n4:30 PM\nAdjourn\n\n\n\n\nWednesday June 12th: Presque Isle Workshop.\nGeospatial Information Technology Center\, Presque Isle\, Maine and Irving Woodlands harvest site\, T16R4\, Maine. \n\n\n\nTime\nItem\nPresenter\n\n\nGIS Lab\n\n\n\n8:00 AM – 8:15 AM\nRegistration\, Coffee and Doughnuts\n\n\n\n8:15 AM – 8:30 AM\nWelcome and Workshop Overview\nRoth\n\n\n8:30 AM – 8:40 AM\nBarbara Wheatland Lab overview – Products and Services\nGuay\n\n\n8:40 AM – 9:00 AM\nDigital elevation models – derived from LiDAR and Structure from Motion\nSandilands\n\n\n9:00 AM – 9:30 AM\nNew Initiatives in Automated Wetland Delineation\nBergquist\n\n\n9:30 AM – 10:10 AM\nConceptual Overview: Wet Areas Mapping\nArp\n\n\n10:10 AM – 10:25 AM\nBreak \n\n\n\n10:25 AM – 11:05 AM\nIndividual Mapping Exercises\nOgilvie\n\n\n11:05 AM – 11:45 AM\nLinkage between Wet Areas and Digital Soil Mapping\nFurze\n\n\n11:45 AM – 1:00 PM\nTravel (University Vans from UMPI)\, Boxed Lunch \n\n\n\nField Tour\n\n\n\n\n1:00 PM – 1:20 PM\nWelcome to Irving Woodlands and Benefits of Wet Areas Mapping\nStedman\n\n\n1:20 PM – 2:00 PM\nsUAS Demonstration and Discussion\nSandilands\n\n\n2:00 PM – 2:45 PM\nBest Management Practices and Stream Crossings\nGilbert\n\n\n2:45 PM – 3:30 PM\nApplication of WAM in Operations\nArp\n\n\n3:30 PM – 3:45 PM\nWorkshop Wrap-up and Final Discussion\nRoth/Arp\n\n\n3:45 PM – 4:30 PM\nTravel (University Vans to UMPI)\n\n\n\n4:30 PM – 4:30 PM\n\n\n\n\n4:30 PM\nAdjourn
