For state and federal agencies to fully adopt Nature-Based Infrastructure, reliable methods for monitoring system performance are essential. Defining and monitoring tolerance transforms uncertainty into actionable parameters.
A successful system functions within the defined hydrologic tolerances set during design. LVF Lab and its partners use remote sensing, spectroscopy, and plant science to generate the data needed to evaluate performance and guide adaptive management.
When performance begins to deviate, targeted interventions such as replanting, regrading, or hydrologic adjustments are implemented. This feedback-driven process ensures that systems remain functional and resilient over time.
