TL;DR: A campaign was run in June 2017, where participants were asked to visually interpret very high resolution satellite imagery from Google Maps and Bing using the Geo‐Wiki application, which produced the most accurate global field size map to date.

TL;DR: The Forest Observation System (FOS) initiative is presented, an international cooperation to establish and maintain a global in situ forest biomass database that offers the potential to improve the accuracy of RS-based biomass products while developing new synergies between the RS and ground-based ecosystem research communities.

TL;DR: In this paper, the suitability of the five-band RapidEye satellite image to predict the distribution of six tree species was examined, and two methods for the Ukrainian region of Polissya: random forest (RF) for tree species prediction and k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) for growing stock volume and biomass mapping.

TL;DR: In this article , a reference data set and a prototype of a globally consistent forest management map with high spatial detail on the most prevalent forest management classes such as intact forests, managed forests with natural regeneration, planted forests, plantation forest (rotation up to 15 years), oil palm plantations, and agroforestry are presented.
