- Statement
- Landsat 7 SLC-off imagery at a resolution of 15 m was compared to Landsat 2005 imagery and the Change in Natural Forest Cover from 1990 to 2005 developed by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), Conservation International and the Madagascar Ministry of Environment, Water, Forests and Tourism. The imagery was acquired from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Global Visualization Viewer (Glovis), available at http://glovis.usgs.gov/. ENVI 4.7 was used for processing and gap filling of the imagery. Visual interpretation based on shape, color, proximity to features and texture was used to digitize suspected forest encroachment using ArcGIS 9.3.1. The data have not been validated; therefore some of the clearings are likely due to natural disturbances such as landslides, flooding, natural fires or tree falls.
