Satellite imagery alone, however, isn’t sufficient. Project staff conduct regular on-site visits to ensure that passive regeneration is progressing as intended. This approach depends on the careful monitoring of potential threats such as cattle grazing, tree harvesting, and the use of fire, which are strictly prohibited for participating landowners. We conduct routine field inspections to detect any such violations, as well as to check for signs of forest diseases, pest outbreaks, or harm to wildlife.
