Research Interests: Specializes in using remote sensing techniques (LiDAR, aerial photography, hyperspectral imaging) for forest inventory, health monitoring, urban forestry analysis, and environmental modeling. Her work emphasizes tree species identification, structural parameter measurement, and damage assessment in both natural and urban ecosystems. She also explores applications of spatial analysis and geostatistics in ecosystem modeling.
Key Themes in Publications: Focuses on LiDAR accuracy in lowland oak forests, CIR aerial photo damage assessment, and urban heat island analysis in Zagreb. Research bridges traditional forestry practices with advanced geospatial technologies. Recent work addresses challenges in transitioning analog to digital remote sensing methods.
Labs/Teams: Involved with remote sensing teams at the Faculty of Forestry, contributing to projects like Maksimir Park tree health monitoring and IKONOS satellite applications in Croatia.
