Characterization of Forested Landscapes from Remotely Sensed Data Using Fractals and Spatial Autocorrelation

The characterization of forested landscapes is frequently required in civil engineering practice. In this study, some spatial analysis techniques are presented that might be employed with Landsat TM data to analyze forest structure characteristics. A case study is presented wherein fractal dimension...
