Abstract
Forest operational planning is normally based on stands, owners or regional level as the primary unit of treatment. A forest landscape is a spatial mosaic of arbitrary boundaries containing distinct areas that functionally interact. Landscape structure refers to the relative spatial arrangement of patches and interconnections among them.
In recent years, interest has been directed towards the use of smaller area units such that the formation of treatment units becomes part of the operational planning. This study explored the implementation of a multi resolution segmentation approach to site qualify and stocking level estimation using an object-oriented eCognition and discussed the applicability of the proposed system to costal forest management.
