Dr Richard Crabbe is an Earth observation scientist and a Lecturer in Remote Sensing at Charles Darwin University.
The Nature Repair Market (NRM) encourages land management practices that improve biodiversity, and is creating opportunities for First Nations peoples and organisations. However, the emerging NRM requires effective and efficient methods to foster easy participation.
The seminar ‘The role of remote sensing in the Nature Repair Market’ will demonstrate the potential of uncrewed aerial vehicles (drones) and satellites for the management of Indigenous Protected Areas in the Kimberley region of Western Australia, measuring native vegetation conditions in the savanna and desert Countries.
Richard’s research is focused on vegetation remote sensing, especially leveraging Earth observation satellites for terrestrial vegetation monitoring at landscape scales. Richard leads CDU’s Innovative Biodiversity Monitoring project in the Kimberley, and the Earth Observation and Remote Sensing lab at CDU’s Research Institute for the Environment and Livelihoods.
