Response of the regression tree model to high resolution remote sensing data for predicting percent tree cover in a Mediterranean ecosystem

Abstract: Percent tree cover is the percentage of the ground surface area covered by a vertical projection of the outermost perimeter of the plants. It is an important indicator to reveal the condition of forest systems and has a significant importance for ecosystem models as a main input. The aim of this study is to estimate the percent tree cover of various forest stands in a Mediterranean environment based on an empirical relationship between tree coverage and remotely sensed data in Goksu Watershed located at the Ea… Show more

“…The most frequently used approaches in forestry include regression and decision trees [102,103], artificial neutral networks [70,104] random forests [105][106][107], and support vectors [108,109]. The size of the training data set for machine learning greatly influences the stability and accuracy of the trained model [110].…”
