Secrets Beneath the Trees: Exploring the Quabbin’s Hidden Historical Landscape with Lidar
Imagine if the Quabbin Reservoir had no trees! Lidar (short for Light Detection and Ranging) is a technology that lets researchers peek beneath the tree canopy to model the surface of the earth. Join Dr. Becky Seifried, Geospatial Information Librarian at UMass Amherst, to learn how we can use Lidar to map the traces of historical settlements, like stone walls and road cuts – and you’ll discover just how much built heritage is hidden beneath the forests of Quabbin.
