Remote sensing and Ecosystem services

4 из 24

● Provides data for non-spatial assessment ...● but... Spatially explicit● Up-to-date and operational● Large areas● Independent

Why Remote Sensing

5 из 24

● Proxy● Uncertainty● Wrong scales● High technological capacity is required

Why NOT remote sensing...

6 из 24

● Regression Models● Radiative Transfer Models● Thematic mapping● Land Use/Land Cover● Provision of Input Data for Biophysical Models

IFL to HCVF

● From Intact Forest Landscapes to High Conservation Value Forests, which are forested areas with:

1. Concentrations of biodiversity values

2. Rare, threatened or endangered ecosystems

3. Basic services of nature in critical situations (e.g. watershed protection, erosion control)

4. Fundamental to meeting basic needs of local communities and/or critical to local communities' traditional cultural identity

● Direct: Observations and RS measures and derivatives are correlated with species richness and diversity

● Indirect: RS-derived habitat maps can be used to assess particular species status and extrapolate

● Massive free RS data: Landsat 8/OLI, Terra,Aqua/MODIS● New classification methods: machine learning, object

recognition● New technologies: LIDAR

Opportunities

● Lack of baseline landcover data: no NLCD or CORINE equivalent

● Undeveloped network of constant field plots● Lack of open data for more detailed then subject level
