Traditionally, phenology data has been collected by people on the ground, one plant at a time. More recently satellite imagery has been used to make inferences about plant phenology across landscapes and continents. But how do you connect measures of phenology at such different scales? We will talk about networked digital cameras, unmanned aerial vehicles, and how the images they take can connect phenology measures from the plant scale to landscape scale.
