The research of forest growth monitoring based on remote sensing

The forest growing condition is an important index of vegetation monitoring. Mastering this information timely can help us to man-age the forest resource, and predict and control the forest pest effectively. The development and application of remote sensing technique provides a new approach for the growing condition monitoring. This paper using the vegetation information which is obtained from the remote sensing, described the monitoring method and index. Furthermore, we proposed a monitoring model based on NDVI, and the design, operation principle of ANN — CA monitoring and prediction model. At the last of the paper, some existing problems of the growing condition remote monitoring were discussed.
