With the aid of two satellites and machine learning, researcher Hakim Abdi is mapping the composition of tree species in Swedish forests down to the individual stands. Through the creation of a method capable of generating annual maps of tree diversity, his aim is to assist in forest management and decision-making regarding both climate and biodiversity strategies. Funded by the Swedish National S
