Water Chestnuts in the Sudbury River, Concord, MA. Photo by Ann Ringwood of Wicked Local, from an article by Meg Muckenhoupt When: Sunday, July 21st -- Monday, July 22ndWhere: Lake Warner, MA and HackerFarm at Belchertown, MA
RSVP: waterchestnuts.eventbrite.comWhat:Sunday (7/21): Intro to MapKnitter + Infragram. We're planning on gathering on Sunday, July 21st at the newly-formed "Hacker Farm" in nearby Belchertown, MA in order to do some planning, practice kite and balloon flying, and potluck BBQ-ing. We'll also be introducing MapKnitter and the Infragram platform, in preparation for the aerial imaging event the next day. Monday (7/22): DIY Aerial Water Chestnut Assessment. Water Chestnut is an invasive aquatic plant species in Massachusetts that forms dense, floating mats which severely limit available light and nutrients for aquatic ecosystems. On Monday, July 22nd, we'll be working with members of the UMass Amherst Dept of Environmental Conservation and the US Fish and Wildlife Service to apply Public Lab's DIY aerial imagery techniques in the assessment one or several management sites near Amherst, MA. Depending on the conditions, we're planning on using kites and/or balloons (perhaps based from canoes) to take aerial photos of affected areas both "before" and "after" a management event. We'll also be capturing Infragram near-infrared imagery, in order to see whether near-infrared photography can help to distinguish Water Chestnut from other aquatic species. LodgingThere is plenty of room to camp at the Hacker Farm in Belchertown, MA, on Sunday, Monday, and even Tuesday nights; and there are also a bunch of beds available in the farmhouse. AgendaSunday, July 21st @ HackerFarm01007 Afternoon / evening:
Monday, July 22nd @ Log Pond Cove, Holyoke, MA, Lake Warner, MA, or another nearby location

W A T E R C H E S T N U T SWorkshop on Aquatic and TERrestrial Characterization via Helium Elevation of Sensor Technology; Needed: UFOs and/or Turgid Sleepingbagcovers
Photo: Water Chestnuts in the Sudbury River, Concord, MA. Photo by Ann Ringwood of Wicked Local, from an article by Meg Muckenhoupt When: Saturday, July 20th -- Monday, July 22ndWhere: Amherst, Belchertown, and Holyoke, MAWhat:DIY Aerial Water Chestnut Assessment. Water Chestnut is an invasive aquatic plant species in Massachusetts that forms dense, floating mats which severely limit available light and nutrients for aquatic ecosystems. On Monday, July 22nd, we'll be working with members of the UMass Amherst Dept of Environmental Conservation and the US Fish and Wildlife Service to apply Public Lab's DIY aerial imagery techniques in the assessment one or several management sites near Amherst, MA. Depending on the conditions, we're planning on using kites and/or balloons (perhaps based from canoes) to take aerial photos of affected areas both "before" and "after" a management event. We'll also be capturing Infragram near-infrared imagery, in order to see whether near-infrared photography can help to distinguish Water Chestnut from other aquatic species. Weekend mini workshops. Although the Water Chestnut aerial imaging event will occur during the day on Monday, July 22nd, we're planning on gathering on Saturday, July 20th and Sunday, July 21st at the newly-formed "Hacker Farm" in nearby Belchertown, MA in order to do some prior brainstorming, kite and balloon flying, and potluck BBQ-ing, as well as informally introduce:
LodgingThere is plenty of room to camp at the Hacker Farm in Belchertown, MA, on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday nights! Agenda[Note -- the agenda is evolving -- feel free to add suggestions in this wiki; via the "talk" link above; or via the Google Group] Saturday, July 20th @ HackerFarm01007
Sunday, July 21st @ HackerFarm01007
Monday, July 22nd @ Log Pond Cove, Holyoke, MA, Lake Warner, MA, or another nearby location
