The ability to use digital remotely sensed data for forest inventory is often limited by the nature of the measures, which, with the exception of multi-angular or stereo observations …
Traditionally, forest measurement textbooks have been concerned primarily with determination of the amounts of the principal commercial product of forests, wood. This was …
Improved monitoring of forest biomass and biomass change is needed to quantify natural and anthropogenic effects on the terrestrial carbon cycle. Landsat's temporal and spatial …
This paper focuses on the use of models for increasing the precision of estimators in large- area forest surveys. It is motivated by the increasing availability of remotely sensed data …
Remote sensing tools are increasingly being used to survey forest structure. Most current methods rely on GPS signals, which are available in above-canopy surveys or in below …
Forest inventory attributes are an important source of information for a variety of strategic and tactical forest management purposes. However, it is not possible or feasible for field …
The United Nations Collaborative Program on Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation in Developing Countries (UN REDD) was launched with the aim of …
Forests are an important global resource, playing key roles in both the environment and the economy. The implementation of quality national monitoring programs is required for the …
Abstract Airborne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) and Landsat data were evaluated as auxiliary information with the intent to increase the precision of growing stock volume …
