For the past three years, the University of Massachusetts and Harvard Forest have been working on an automated system for collecting remote sensing data about a regrowing region in Petersham, Massachusetts. The system consists of a two 15 m towers separated by a 50 m span and connected to one another by a pair of taut cables which support a tram that can travel between the two towers. This paper will discuss the operation of the system, the suite of instruments on-board the tram, and a radar system that is being constructed to operate on the tram. It is anticipated that this system will be able to perform measurements on a periodic basis for the purpose of monitoring the biophysical characteristics of the surrounding area. |
