For a few years now, Public Lab’s open hardware community has been developing not only DIY tools for taking multispectral photos, but also software tools to process and analyze these photos—the Infragram project, and more recently the Image Sequencer project. These have enabled many people to take multispectral (near infrared/visible) imagery and do NDVI plant health analysis at home, on a shoestring budget. (This post was cross-posted on PublicLab.org at: https://publiclab.org/n/20695) Above, converting a Canon A480 to take multispectral...

As part of our field research, SEES interns identify local potential mosquito breeding habitats. As I live in an area that is cold and rainy most of the year, I did not anticipate finding any larvae, and when I did find some, it was not in the area I expected. Rather than...
