A method for mapping of forest biomass using black-and-white aerial photographs and nondestructive field sampling is described through a case study of Ladhiya subcatchment in Kumaun Himalaya, India. Forest types were mapped using aerial photographs and field checks. Each forest type was divided ...
Changes in forest disturbances can have strong impacts on forests, yet we lack consistent data on Europe’s forest disturbance regimes and their changes over time. Here we used satellite data to map three decades of forest disturbances across continental Europe, and analysed the patterns and trends...
Obtain forest canopy height map for study area based on the estimation models for different forest types established in Step (2), and conduct accuracy assessment for the forest canopy height map by comparing with existing forest canopy height map; Obtain optimal variables for different forest types...
Surveys of India (SoI) topographical sheet as well map provided by West Bengal State Forest Division were used to delineation of Protected Forest (PF) Boundary as the basement of the work. Region cover by BFD and its immediate surrounding area has been sensibly clipped based on area of ...
A comprehensive quantification of global forest fragmentation is urgently required to guide forest protection, restoration and reforestation policies. Previous efforts focused on the static distribution patterns of forest remnants, potentially neglecting dynamic changes in forest landscapes. Here, we map global...
used to geo-rectify remote sensing data were digitized from the topographic maps and from field observations. Various forest cover types to classify RS data from the 1980’s were obtained from the vegetation map of South India at a scale of 1:250,000 (Pascal1986). Training data required for...

Subsequently, the random forest (RF) model was used to create a landslide susceptibility map with original and optimized factors. The resultant hybrid models GeoDetector-RF and RFE-RF were evaluated and compared by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and accuracy. The ...
Here we use the PlanetScope nanosatellite constellation, which delivers global very high-resolution daily imagery, to map both forest and non-forest tree cover for continental Africa using images from a single year. Our prototype map of 2019 (RMSE = 9.57%, bias = −6.9%). ...
