Whroo Dry Eucalypt SuperSite Panoramic Photopoint Image Collection

Created 25/06/2025

Updated 25/06/2025

High quality digital images are captured using a digital SLR camera at the plots (core 1 hectare vegetation plot) at the Whroo Dry Eucalypt SuperSite using the panoramic photopoint method. The panoramic photopoint method may be the most informative in open forests/woodlands and rangelands. Three photopoints are established configured in an equilateral triangle (2.5m sides) with the centre marked with a star dropper and the location recorded with DGPS. At each photopoint take photographic sequences in a 360° panorama, with up to 40 photographs with a minimum 50% overlap between consecutive photographs. For more information about the method, see White, el al. (2012) AusPlots Rangelands Survey Protocols Manual Version 1.2.9. The site was established in 2010 in box woodland dominated by Eucalyptus microcarpa (grey box) and eucalyptus leucoxylon (yellow gum). For additional site information, see https://www.tern.org.au/tern-observatory/tern-ecosystem-processes/whroo-dry-eucalypt-supersite/.

Other images collected at the site include digital hemispherical photography, phenocam time-lapse images taken from fixed overstorey cameras, five-photopoint images, and ancilliary images of fauna and flora.
