SDG 15: Life On Land

Events about Sustainable Use of Land

The Biology Undergraduate Program, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Universitas Diponegoro (UNDIP), held a Public Lecture entitled “Lidar in Ecological Research and Conservation Monitoring” in October 2024, presenting speakers from Arbor Meta, Australia. This event aims to promote sustainable land use (including forests and wildlands) through the application of advanced technology. The main discussion is the Application of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) in ecological and bioconservation research. LiDAR technology is considered essential for mapping habitats, estimating biodiversity, and monitoring environmental changes with high accuracy, as well as assisting in calculating carbon stocks in nature, which supports environmental conservation efforts based on science and technology.
