About
Dr Bryan Hally

Dr Bryan Hally’s project developed new ways to provide quantitative analysis of the effectiveness of prescribed burning using terrestrial and airborne LiDAR techniques. Using a series of case studies of varying forest types, Bryan compared his measurements to existing vegetation assessment techniques to provide objective analysis of burn effectiveness. He then developed a model for the simulation of active fire landscapes which will validate a range of satellite remote sensors.

Bryan is currently working in the Geospatial Sciences department at RMIT University where he is a researcher, assisting in forest fuel attribution and forest structure projects. This included research on the CRC’s Fire surveillance and hazard mapping project.

His thesis is available here.
