Global views, local solutions & planetary impact

Climate change. Dwindling resources. Complex Infrastructure. Human Impacts.

Environmental challenges are motivating government, industry and research institutions to develop information streams for detecting and measuring changes from local to global scales. With your information needs driving our research, UQ’s Remote Sensing Research Centre can give you the capability to measure and monitor changes to the environment, crops, resources or infrastructure. Our expertise enables you to improve agricultural yields and farming efficiency, manage carbon stocks and natural resources, maintain infrastructure, assess and manage natural disasters, and reduce the threat of biosecurity events.

Industry and government solutions

Work with us to learn how we can transform satellite imagery, airborne and drone imagery, and field survey data into meaningful maps or information matched to your needs.

You ask the questions. We conduct the research. Together we can develop operational solutions to meet your needs.

Local and global research collaborations

Whether responding to the crisis facing coral reefs – or assisting government agencies to develop monthly, whole of state, satellite-based analytics on key environmental indicators – we understand that the power of research is multiplied by working together. Collaborate with us and learn how our experience and expertise will achieve your research goals.
