Towards a strategy to implement the Canadian Wetland Inventory using satellite remote sensing
TL;DR: The Canadian Wetland Inventory (CWI) as mentioned in this paper is based on the assumption that a consistent map for all areas of Canada using satellite imagery can be produced for a minimum mapping unit of 1 ha.
