Multi-scale Forest Habitat Monitoring Using Remote Sensing Data
Remote sensing imagery and advanced image analysis methods show high potential for monitoring forest habitat issues. The objective of this paper is to provide ready-to-use information on forest habitats by conducting a multi-scale approach for the delineation of such, and the assessment of their conservation status on multi-spectral satellite imagery of high and very high spatial resolution, as...
متن کاملForest mapping and monitoring using active 3D remote sensing
The main aim in forest mapping and monitoring is to produce accurate information for forest managers with the use of efficient methodologies. For example, it is important to locate harvesting sites and stands where forest operations should be carried out as well as to provide updates regarding forest growth, among other changes in forest structure. In recent years, remote sensing (RS) has taken...
متن کاملForest Fire Potential Modeling and Simulation of its Extension Using Remote Sensing Data and GIS: (A Protected Area of Arasbaran)
Forest fire models are generally used in different aspects of fire management and are helpful in understanding and prediction of fire behavior. Forest fires cause a significant damage for public property by destroying a large tract of forest. This helps fire fighters to focus on an area with greater risk and to develop better substructure for fire fighter training and ultimately to plan fire-f...
متن کاملMonitoring Meteorological Drought in Iran Using Remote Sensing and Drought Indices
Drought is a major environmental disaster in many parts of the world. Knowledge about the timing, severity and extentof drought can aid planning and decision-making. Drought indices derived from in-situ meteorological data have coarsespatial and temporal resolutions, thus, obtaining a real-time drought condition over a large area is difficult. This studyused advanced very high resolution radiom...
متن کاملState of the art for tropical forest monitoring by remote sensing A review carried out for
Norway has undertaken a large initiative for reducing deforestation, in particular in tropical forests which represent a significant carbon store in the Earth system. However, measuring the effects of reducing deforestation, and hopefully also achieving some degree of reforestation, requires effective means of quantifying the results of the measures and giving quick warning if counteractions to...
