Abstract Digital Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) and Satellite Probatoire d'Observation de la Terre (SPOT) High Resolution Visible (HRV) images of coniferous forest canopies were compared in their relationsbip to forest wood volume using correlation and regression analyses. Significant inverse relationships were found between softwood volume and the spectral bands from both sensors (P <0·01). The highest correlations were between the log of softwood volume and the near-infared bands (HRV band 3, r = -0·89; TM band 4, r = -0.83).
