Abstract:
One main challenge in environmental and ecological research is to map land use, the human intent to modify the earth's cover, using satellite data. We have mapped forest management, a land use, in the southeastern and northwestern United States, 1.5 million square kilometers, at high spatial. This is a novel study using spectral time series analysis, expert derived training data and a random forest classifier to map forest management, calculate probability and uncertainty of class membership.
