This vegetation type map is the most comprehensive one developed for India so far.
The predicted vegetation anomalies compare well with observations, which can be effectively utilized in early warning and better planning in water resources and agricultural sectors in India.
Our results emphasise the significance of using vegetation indices and textures for vegetation type classification in the Western Ghats.
Therefore, we strongly recommend further studies about karst-land vegetation in India.
