Drone and ground-truth data collection, image annotation and machine learning: A protocol for coastal habitat mapping and classification [PDF]
MethodsXAerial drone imaging is an efficient tool for mapping and monitoring of coastal habitats at high spatial and temporal resolution. Specifically, drone imaging allows for time- and cost-efficient mapping covering larger areas than traditional mapping and ...

Mapping area of habitat for inland wetland species [PDF]
Conservation BiologyAbstract Area of habitat (AOH) maps provide a high‐resolution representation of the habitat available in a species’ range and can support conservation policy and planning processes. However, until recently, there was insufficient knowledge on the distribution of inland wetlands and freshwater biodiversity to develop AOH mapping ...

Remote sensing of river habitat for salmon restoration
Frontiers in Remote Sensing, 2022 Losses of river complexity and viable habitat has led to negative effects on Atlantic salmon. With the rapid population decline of Atlantic salmon, there has been an increase in river restoration and salmon reintroduction projects, and an understanding ...

A global map of terrestrial habitat types [PDF]
Scientific Data, 2020 AbstractWe provide a global, spatially explicit characterization of 47 terrestrial habitat types, as defined in the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) habitat classification scheme, which is widely used in ecological analyses, including for quantifying species’ Area of Habitat.

Comparing conservation value maps and mapping methods in a rural landscape in southern Finland
Landscape Online, 2015 We tested to what extent conservation value maps are different if the valuation and mapping method is changed. We compared 66 different conservation value and 4 different ecosystem service maps.

Rhodolith Beds Heterogeneity along the Apulian Continental Shelf (Mediterranean Sea)
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 Rhodolith beds represent a key habitat worldwide, from tropical to polar ecosystems. Despite this habitat is considered a hotspot of biodiversity, providing a suite of ecosystem goods and services, still scarce quantitative information is available thus ...
