Combining Accuracy Assessment of Land-Cover Maps With Environmental Monitoring Programs

Abstract: A scientifically valid accuracy assessment of a large-area, land-cover map is expensive. Environmental monitoring programs offer a potential source of data to partially defray the cost of accuracy assessment while still maintaining the statistical validity. In this article, three general strategies for combining accuracy assessment and environmental monitoring protocols are described. These strategies range from a fully integrated accuracy assessment and environmental monitoring protocol, to one in which the p… Show more

“…Having a common repository of reference data applicable to assessing accuracy of several map products would be a valuable addition to land cover science (Loveland et al 2000;Wulder et al 2018, p. 4266;Zhao et al 2014 (Gallego 2011) and Kempeneers et al (2013) used sample data from several national forest inventories for accuracy assessment. Obtaining reference data from two or more sampling programs that were not specifically designed to provide accuracy assessment information introduces several challenging issues for use of these data (Stehman et al 2000), but if these issues are addressed data from these programs may enhance accuracy assessment and area estimation.…”

“…Secondly, as the software available for validation are often complicated to use and not well-documented , a set of user-friendly software to validate LC maps was developed, and detailed educational resources were created to address this issue. Lastly, as there is often a lack of accurate and up-to-date reference data because their collection is labor intensive and expensive (Stehman et al, 2000), an application was developed for collecting LC data in situ to assist in the creation of LC reference dataset that is of great importance for validation (See et al, 2015;Fritz et al, 2017;Stehman et al, 2018;McCallum et al, 2018). All the software developed was presented to the participants of the workshops with step-by-step instructions.…”
