We report detailed procedures for an invasive plant biomass estimation method that utilizes data obtained from unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) remote sensing to assess biomass and capture the spatial distribution of invasive species. This approach proves highly beneficial for conducting hazard assessment and early warning of invasive plants.
