• Your Data Stream starts automatically
• Real-time monitoring becomes available
• Your data is processed according to the transformations defined in the template. For example, LiDAR data can be classified to make vegetation detection easier.

Important Notes

⚠️ Key Reminders:

• Data capture - Start date is crucial for vegetation analysis
• Credentials must be configured and updated
