Download or read book National Forest Inventories written by Claude Vidal and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-24 with total page 847 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents the current state and good practices of national forest inventories in monitoring wood resources and demonstrates pathways for harmonisation and improved common reporting. Beyond a general overview over availability and use of wood resources in different countries, it provides a unique collection of original contributions from national forest inventory experts with in-depth descriptions of current NFI methods in assessing wood availability and wood use in European countries, and selected countries from America and Asia.The main topics are national definitions and improvements in common reporting of forests available for wood supply, stem quality and assortments, estimation of change including growth and drain, and tree resources outside forest land. The book is a must-have for everyone who is contributing to national forest inventories either methodologically or operatively, for people who want or need to understand national forest inventory provided data and information on the availability of wood resources. By providing profound knowledge it is a valuable basis for scientists involved in scenario modelling and analysing effects of climate change, as well as individuals in private organisations and public administrations promoting the sustainable use of natural resources and the potential of green economy.

Download or read book Remote Sensing of Forest Environments written by Michael A. Wulder and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remote Sensing of Forest Environments: Concepts and Case Studies is an edited volume intended to provide readers with a state-of-the-art synopsis of the current methods and applied applications employed in remote sensing the world's forests. The contributing authors have sought to illustrate and deepen our understanding of remote sensing of forests, providing new insights and indicating opportunities that are created when forests and forest practices are considered in concert with the evolving paradigm of remote sensing science. Following background and methods sections, this book introduces a series of case studies that exemplify the ways in which remotely sensed data are operationally used, as an element of the decision-making process, and in the scientific study of forests. Remote Sensing of Forest Environments: Concepts and Case Studies is designed to meet the needs of a professional audience composed of both practitioners and researchers. This book is also suitable as a secondary text for graduate-level students in Forestry, Environmental Science, Geography, Engineering, and Computer Science.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication is intended to reduce problems by providing the Canadian forestry community with common forest inventory terminology an explanation of usage. Presented in 3 sections, inventory procedures, glossary and appendices, the scope of this publication is limited to inventory for areas of wood production and harvesting. Inventory tasks are outlined in chronological sequence, the glossary includes terms, and 3 appendices present the metric measurements used in inventories, the symbols approved for species and species groups, and a description of the Canada Land Data System.
Download or read book Object Based Image Analysis written by Thomas Blaschke and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-08-09 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together a collection of invited interdisciplinary persp- tives on the recent topic of Object-based Image Analysis (OBIA). Its c- st tent is based on select papers from the 1 OBIA International Conference held in Salzburg in July 2006, and is enriched by several invited chapters. All submissions have passed through a blind peer-review process resulting in what we believe is a timely volume of the highest scientific, theoretical and technical standards. The concept of OBIA first gained widespread interest within the GIScience (Geographic Information Science) community circa 2000, with the advent of the first commercial software for what was then termed ‘obje- oriented image analysis’. However, it is widely agreed that OBIA builds on older segmentation, edge-detection and classification concepts that have been used in remote sensing image analysis for several decades. Nevert- less, its emergence has provided a new critical bridge to spatial concepts applied in multiscale landscape analysis, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and the synergy between image-objects and their radiometric char- teristics and analyses in Earth Observation data (EO).

This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication describes a pilot study that helped provide foundation information and insight to develop the methods used in Canada's National Deforestation Monitoring System. All forest harvest and deforestation from 1990 to 1999 was mapped using Landsat satellite imagery for a 14,000 km2 area centred at Prince George, BC. The deforestation in the region is one of the more difficult types to map, whereas forest harvest was mostly simple rectilinear clearcuts. The pros and cons of automated classification, provincial inventory data and manual interpretation were determined and detailed accuracy assessments done. It was determined automated techniques were good for clearcuts, but insufficient for deforestation mapping. For deforestation mapping, the importance of ancillary data, high resolution imagery, quality checks, and review of deforestation events during subsequent mapping periods was demonstrated. The forest harvest and deforestation product has been and is being used to test spatially explicit carbon accounting techniques and contributed numbers to Canada's deforestation estimates. The report is a vehicle to document an example of the detailed studies conducted to develop and prove Canada's deforestation mapping procedures.
