As a starting point, Birgit Schneider and Lynda Olman will provide an overview of their work on global forest monitoring platforms that use satellite technologies to detect forests. The workshop will invite short interventions on ecologies and scale to open up an interdisciplinary discussion on the potential and limits of understanding the politics of zoom. Birgit Schneider (University of Potsdam) and Lynda Olman (University of Nevada) will take responsibility for leading the workshop and supplying reading material.
