VEGETATION COVER MAPPING BASED ON REMOTE SENSING AND DIGITAL ELEVATION MODEL DATA

An algorithm of forest cover mapping based on combined GIS-based analysis of multi-band satellite imagery, digital elevation model, and ground truth data was developed. Using the classification principles and an approach of Russian forest scientist Kolesnikov, maps of forest types and forest growing...
