| Popis: | AbstractThe use of drones and remote sensing in combination with geospatial analysis is a cost-efficient way to monitor energy distribution networks, especially those in fire-prone areas. This study investigated the use of image and photogrammetric analysis together with segmentation algorithms to assess vegetation height and volume in power line corridors in Southeast Queensland, Australia. Various fuel reduction techniques, including mega-mulching, spot sprays and cool mosaic burns, were implemented, and drone-generated models were employed to evaluate their effectiveness. The fuel hazard reduction and regrowth in terms of vegetation height and volume were recorded and analysed. Importantly, the study demonstrates a robust correlation (R2 = 0.9073; df = 1,16; F = 156; p |
