Abstract
A system that combines forest variable information from
cellular phone images with remote sensing data was
developed. The system utilizes the central projection
geometry of the cell phone images by applying the so
called relascope principle to derive information on stem
basal area, that is closely related to forest biomass.
Information on tree species and forest types is also
collected with the cellular phones. The forest variable
information with GPS coordinates from the cell phone
images are geo-located in satellite images and used as
training data. Another independent image set is used for
the accuracy assessment. The predictions from the
satellite data are input to the "Planner Engine" that
outputs forest resources information for every forest
stand, and feeds them into a Geographical Information
System (GIS).
