Gingin Banksia Woodland Digital Cover Photography Collection
<p>Digital Cover Photography (DCP) upward-looking images are collected three times per year to capture vegetation cover at Gingin Banksia Woodland SuperSite. These images can be used to estimate Leaf Area Index (LAI).
</p>
<p>
The Gingin Banksia Woodland SuperSite was established in 2011 and is located in a natural woodland of high species diversity with an overstorey dominated by banksia species.
</p><p>
Other images collected at the site include digital hemispherical photography (DHP), photopoints, phenocam time-lapse images taken from fixed under and overstorey cameras, and ancillary images of fauna and flora.

- Statement
- Images were taken along nine 100-meter transects with a 10-meter gap between them, all within a 1-hectare core area. Along each transect, photos were taken every 10 meters, resulting in a total of 81 images. This method provided a systematic way to cover the area and collect data on vegetation structure.
