Abstract

From Space to Tree (S23) defines the methodological trajectory of a multilevel approach, based on integrated EO technologies and 5G, proposed for the biomechanical monitoring of the vegetation in urban parks inside and close areas of historical-archaeological interest. Their protection is a pressing issue for the preservation of their cultural values and the safety of visitors and citizens.
The strategic objective of the project Space-To-Tree is to develop and validate a multilevel and modular system to support the management of historical and archaeological parks aimed to the:
1.trend analysis for the characterization of health status of tree and vegetative cover as well as early detection of on-going changes;
2.evaluation of the biomechanical stability of monumental trees;
3.identification of critical situations in the interface vegetation-monument.
The operational objectives is the development of a decision support and alert (DSA) system, based on integrated Earth Observation technologies and 5G, for:
o the maintenance and safeguarding of historical parks
o the identification of risk situations and forecast of trends and scenarios.
