Dominant tree species classification using remote sensing data and object-based image analysis [OBIA] / Juhaida Jamal

Rainforest was a type of forest that is rich in flora and fauna species. Over the last few decades, forests have been the victims of over logging and deforestation due to forest transformation activities and high demand for a piece of wood. Uncontrolled of this activity gave an impact to the tree sp...
