Stand Attribute Estimation

Stand Attribute Estimation is the process of deriving quantitative forest stand characteristics, such as biomass, height, density, or species composition, from remotely sensed data through statistical or machine learning models, distinguished from broader land cover classification by its focus on measuring specific biophysical and structural properties of forest stands at a defined spatial scale.
