Our model implements a partial loss function that enables dense tree semantic labeling outcomes from non-dense training samples, and a distance regression complementary task that enforces tree crown boundary constraints and substantially improves the model performance. Our multi-task architecture uses a shared backbone network that learns common representations for both tasks and two task-specific decoders, one for the semantic segmentation output and one for the distance map regression. We report that introducing the complementary task boosts the semantic segmentation performance compared to the single-task counterpart in up to 11% reaching an average user’s accuracy of 88.63% and an average producer’s accuracy of 88.59%, achieving state-of-art performance for tree species classification in tropical forests.

Using the Composite Land Degradation Index, this study assessed physical, chemical and biological degradation by determining their extent and severity. Palapye, an agro-pastoral region in eastern Botswana was used as a case study. Land degradation maps (status and indicators) were created with data from the field, soil chemical properties and image interpretation. Areas in the vicinity of settlements with Luvisols at elevations between 773 and 893 m were most degraded, implying impacts from human activities. This study developed a comprehensive list of of land degradation indicators for Botswana and created additional symbols for mapping indicators. Creation of these reference data for 2015 will facilitate the monitoring of land degradation in Palapye. The integrative and spatially explicit procedure utilized in this study can be adapted for assessing and validating local-level land degradation baseline and estimates towards operationalizing Land Degradation Neutrality in all countries.

In this study, six methods, including partial least squares regression, regression kriging, k-nearest neighbour, support vector machines, random forest and high accuracy surface modelling (HASM), were used to simulate forest AGB. Forest AGB was mapped by combining Geoscience Laser Altimeter System data, optical imagery and field inventory data. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Wide Dynamic Range Vegetation Index (WDRVI0.2) of September and October, which had a stronger correlation with forest AGB than that of the peak growing season, were selected as predictor variables, along with tree cover percentage and three GLAS-derived parameters. The results of the different methods were evaluated. The HASM model had the best modelling accuracy (small MAE, RMSE, NRMSE, RMSV and NMSE and large R2). A forest AGB map of the study area was generated using the optimal model.

It is generally suggested that one-third of the city should be covered by green and to ensure this, the city administrators must have an accurate map of the existing UGS. Such a map would be useful to visualize the distribution of the existing green cover and also to find out the areas that can possibly be converted to UGS. Reported studies on UGS mapping have mostly used medium and high resolution images such as Landsat-TM, ETM+, Sentinel-2A, IKONOS, etc. However, studies on the use of very high resolution images for UGS extraction are very limited. The present study is a first attempt in utilizing the very high resolution Worldview-3 image for UGS extraction. Performance of different classification methods such as unsupervised, supervised, object based and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) were compared using the pan sharpened Worldview-3 image covering part of New Delhi in India. It was found that the unsupervised classification followed by manual recoding method showed superior performance with overall accuracy (OA) of 99% and κ coefficient of 0.98. Also, the OA achieved in the present study is the highest when compared to other reported studies on UGS extraction. The map of UGS revealed that almost 40% of the study area is covered by green which is more than the recommended value of 33% (one-third). In order to check the universality of the unsupervised classification approach in extracting UGS, Worldview-3 image covering Rio in Brazil was tested. It was found that an OA of 98% and κ coefficient of 0.95 were obtained which clearly indicate that the proposed approach would work very well in extracting UGS from any Worldview-3 imagery.

The increase in computation capabilities over the last several decades and the development of new statistical techniques have allowed for the automation of forest resource map generation through image analysis techniques and machine learning algorithms. The availability of large-scale data and the high temporal resolution that satellite platforms provide mean that it is possible to obtain updated information about forest resources at the stand level, thus increasing the quality of the spatial information. However, photointerpretation of satellite and aerial images is still the most common way that remote sensing information is used for NFIs or forest management purposes. This study describes a methodology that automatically maps the main forest covers in Galicia (Eucalyptus spp., conifers and broadleaves) using Worldview-2 and the random forest classifier. Furthermore, the method also evaluates the separate mapping of the three most abundant Pinus tree species in Galicia (Pinus pinaster, Pinus radiata and Pinus sylvestris). According to the results, Worldview-2 multispectral images allow for the efficient differentiation between the main forest classes that are present in Galicia with a very high degree of accuracy (91%) and ample spatial detail. Pinus species can also be efficiently differentiated (83%).
