    “HIGHLIGHTS:
    • [They] evaluated the impacts of topographic correction on forest mapping in the mountains.
    • The enhanced C-correction and the physical model reduced topographic effects.
    • The corrected Landsat imagery time series resulted in higher accuracy.
    • Terrain information improved classification but not as much as topographic correction.
    • [They] recommend using topographic correction for forest cover mapping..."

  2. A detailed report on the methodologies in this paper on the #decisiontree classifiers for mapping #forestcover & change was also published by Trix Estomata in 2018: bit.ly/Estomata_2018

  3. Mari Trix Estomata & Klaus Schmitt (2019) used #decisiontree classification & unbiased area estimation to map #forestcover extent & change in the #Philippines using #ALOS #PALSAR mosaic data in support of #REDD+ initiatives. #LoLManuscriptMonday bit.ly/Estomata_2019

    Cheers to Estomata & Schmitt’s affiliation & supporting organizations for this #LoLManuscriptMonday feature: GIZ Philippines, the K&C Initiative of JAXA & the Forest Management Bureau of DENR Philippines #EOChat #GISChat 🛰️🌳🥳
