Comparison of Office and Field Techniques for Validating Landscape Change Classification in Pacific Northwest National Parks
2018
Remote Sensing
We evaluated the feasibility of using aerial photo-based office methods rather than field-collected data to validate Landsat-based change detection products in national parks in Washington State. ...
Our work demonstrates that validation of Landsat-derived landscape change patches can be done using office based tools such as aerial imagery, and that such methods provide an adequate validation for most ...
Acknowledgments: Shelby Clary assisted with office validation and John Boetsch and Katherine Beirne helped with field sampling. ...
