Cartographical representation of forest cover of the protected areas using remote-sensed data (on example of the Zabaikalsky National Park)
This paper is devoted to the application of multispectral space high resolution images (made by the cameras of IRS LISS-4 and ASTER (VNIR)) to large-scale mapping and analysis of the current state of forest cover in the protected areas of the Zabaikalsky National Park as a part of the area near Lake Baikal. For the adjustment of earth remote sensing data automatic classification, the field investigations were conducted (geobotanical description of tested polygons).
