Hyperspectral Slovakia – Digital Transformation of Data Collection for Land Management in Slovakia, or How to See the Invisible (15 min)

Ľuboš Halvoň - Director General, the National Forest Centre ·

The National Forest Centre (NLC) is digitally transforming Slovak forestry and introducing advanced technological innovations into the Thematic State Map Series for Forestry. A key pillar of this modernisation is airborne remote sensing, particularly 3D laser scanning (LiDAR) and digital stereophotogrammetry. Through automated point-cloud processing and advanced data interpretation, the NLC can map forest stand boundaries with high precision and extract key tree characteristics. This modern technological ecosystem forms the foundation of the Forestry Information System and serves as a key pillar of precise, intelligent and sustainable management of Slovakia’s natural resources through forest management programmes.
