The AlpinIO research cooperation deals with methods from the field of computer vision for the supported preparation, processing and evaluation of alpine vegetation. The main focus is on the accurate recognition and further on the segmentation of the vegetation. With this information, statements can be made about the development over the years and thus also possible influences of a climate warming. In the course of this, photographs from several years are available, which record the development of these areas. This vegetation zone allows a look into the past and thus into the development of other zones thousands of years ago.
