Forest Fuel Loads Estimation from Landsat ETM+ and ALOS PALSAR Data
Fuel load is the key factor driving fire ignition, spread and intensity. The current literature reports the light detection and ranging (LiDAR), optical and airborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data for fuel load estimation, but the optical and SAR ...
