  1. Regional Scale Forest Mappingwith Medium Resolution Satellite Data DmitryE. Aksenov ElenaS. Esipova Natalia V. Kuksina MikhailL. Karpachevsky

  2. Minimum set of information includes: • Forest cover • Dominant tree species • Age of the upper canopy • Productivity / growing stock estimation

  3. Options for the forest cover and tree species: • Modis data (like UMD TreeCover) +official forest survey data (lesoustroistvo) • Landsat TM/ETM+ classification • IRS-P6 AWiFS classification

  4. Example of Landsat ETM+

  5. dark coniferous (spruce, fir) ...and its classification by tree species pine mixed deciduous – dark coniferous deciduous (birch, aspen) cleacuts fire scars

  6. IRS-P6 AWiFS

  7. Retrospective data allow age classification Change detection MSS-TM Change detection TM-ETM+ Change detection ETM+-AWiFS MSS classification ~2000Landsat ETM+ GLCF 2007 Landsat TM IRS-P6 AWiFS ScanEx ~1980 Landsat MSS GLCF <1980 clearcuts in Landsat MSS ~1990 Landsat TM GLCF

  8. Landsat MSS (~1980)

  9. Landsat TM (~1990)

  10. Change detection MSS-TM

  11. Landsat TM (~1990)

  12. Landsat ETM+ (~2000)

  13. Change TM-ETM+

  14. Logging of 1980-2000

  15. Productivity / growing stockis still a problem • NDVI in combination with official data? • Radar data for sparse forests? • Landsat imagery classification in combination with ground data(kNN-method)?

  16. Kirov Oblast Mapping (2004-2006) Change detection MSS-TM Change detection TM-ETM+ Change detection ETM+-AWiFS MSS classification ~2000Landsat ETM+ GLCF 2007 Landsat TM IRS-P6 AWiFS ScanEx ~1980 Landsat MSS GLCF <1980 clearcuts in Landsat MSS ~1990 Landsat TM GLCF + Landsat ETM+ classification for tree species

  17. European Russia Mapping (2006-2007) Change detection MSS-TM Change detection TM-ETM+ Change detection Modis 2001-2006 MSS classification ~2000Landsat ETM+ GLCF 2006 Modis ~1980 Landsat MSS GLCF <1980 clearcuts in Landsat MSS ~1990 Landsat TM GLCF + UMD Treecover Forest of the USSR (1990)Modis classification (Bartalev et al.)

  18. European Russia Mapping (plans for 2008) Change detection MSS-TM Change detection TM-ETM+ Change detection ETM+-AWiFS MSS classification ~2000Landsat ETM+ GLCF 2007 Landsat TM IRS-P6 AWiFS ScanEx ~1980 Landsat MSS GLCF <1980 clearcuts in Landsat MSS ~1990 Landsat TM GLCF + IRS-P6 AWiFS classification for tree species

  19. Logging sustainability Planting Natural reforestation Forest resources • Economically unavailable • forests: • remote areas; • low-productive stands; • environmental limitations; • protected areas clearcuts selective logging forest fires pest outbreaks

  20. MSS-TM-ETM+ change detection Northern Kirov Oblast

  21. Lamdsat MSS, ~1980

  22. Landsat TM, ~1990

  23. Landsat ETM+, ~2000

  24. non-forest areas clearcuts 1990 – 2000 ther forest clearcuts 1980-1990

  25. non-forest areas clearcuts 1980 – 2000 гг. other forest

  26. non-forest lands old coniferous clearcuts 1980 – 2000 other forest
