Reduce manual field work. Save time and expenditures. Mitigate risks during environmental work. All while helping save the monarch butterfly, a species that has declined by over 80% in the past two decades and may soon be federally protected. Creating a win-win solution that prioritizes conservation action, Stantec developed a remote sensing solution to identify where your sites and projects may impact suitable habitat. Biologist Erica Christiansen tells us about it.
