Forest cover mapping in Central Spain with IRS-WIFS images and multi-extent textual-contextual measures

The Possibility of Created the Vegetation Cover Maps in the Central Zagros Forest by Using the IRS Satellite Image

The preparation of vegetation cover maps by used the land inventory and a traditional method has a lot of cost and time. But today, remote sensing is one of the main sources of data collection and information production for study and monitoring land resources, and was efficient tools for providing quickly and timely data and information needs for program planning in the natural resource filed. ...

Fractional forest cover mapping in the Brazilian Amazon with a combination of MODIS and TM images

Mapping Forest Cover and Forest Cover Change with Airborne S-Band Radar

Assessments of forest cover, forest carbon stocks and carbon emissions from deforestation and degradation are increasingly important components of sustainable resource management, for combating biodiversity loss and in climate mitigation policies. Satellite remote sensing provides the only means for mapping global forest cover regularly. However, forest classification with optical data is limit...
