How much do you know about high conservation value forests and remote sensing? In our latest video, ForestPaths partner Mihai Daniel Niță (Transilvania University of Brașov) explains how the project uses remote sensing to map Europe’s forests. 

High conservation value forests are critically important for biodiversity and ecosystem services, yet they face many threats. Where no systematic inventories exist, as in parts of Eastern Europe, these forests often go unrecognised and unprotected. This makes consistent, large-scale mapping an important tool for conserving and managing them.
