Featuring a Presentation on Automated Mapping of Beaver Activity and Its Environmental Impacts in CT

Members and guests are invited to our Annual Meeting featuring a presentation by Evan Zocco, a Ph.D. student at the University of Connecticut’s Department of Natural Resources and the Environment.

Evan will talk about the ways in which beavers change the landscape, and his development of advanced computer methods for environmental monitoring using drone imagery. The results of his research have valuable implications for wetland mapping, ecosystem monitoring, and decision-making in land and water resource management.

After the presentation, we invite you to stay to learn more about the work of protecting the environment, preserving local farms and connecting people with nature. You will also be able to meet the board of directors who will report on activities and finances and answer your questions. Current TRLC members will elect directors to the board for the next term.
