New vegetation type map of India prepared using satellite remotesensing: Comparison with global vegetation maps and utilities
A seamless vegetation type map of India (scale 1: 50,000) prepared using medium-resolution IRS LISS-IIIimages is presented. The map was created using an on-screen visual interpretation technique and has anaccuracy of 90%, ...
Energy determines broad pattern of plant distribution in Western Himalaya
Several factors describe the broad pattern of diversity in plant species distribution. We explore these determinants of species richness in Western Himalayas using high-resolution species data available for the area to ...
INTELLIGENT OBJECT BASED SMOOTHING: AN ALGORITHM FOR REMOVING NOISES IN THE CLASSIFIED SATELLITE IMAGE
The existing smoothing algorithms like mean, median, majority/mode filters are not efficient in smoothing the classified image derived from the satellite data. Mean filter alters original class pattern and also it is ...
Mapping forests in monsoon Asia with ALOS PALSAR 50-m mosaic images and MODIS imagery in 2010
Extensive forest changes have occurred in monsoon Asia, substantially affecting climate, carbon cycle
and biodiversity. Accurate forest cover maps at fine spatial resolutions are required to qualify and
quantify these ...
