Hyperspectrally identifying trees in tropical forests
A preprint on using hyperspectral sensors to perform tree species identification across the tropics is now available on bioarxiv.
This study introduces a new approach for mapping tree species linking a multi-temporal implementation of the CNN method detectree2 to segment tree-crowns from aerial photographs to machine learning classifiers to identify species from hyperspectral data.
