Mean: 2.9 | STD: 0.26 |
Constraints and limitations · Cloud presence · By using medium-resolution imagery for large forests, distinguishing reforestation, or deforestation activities from other land uses, such as agriculture or natural disturbances, can be challenging due to similar visual characteristics. · The accuracy of land cover data used for classification can impact the precision of change detection results. · Changes in vegetation cover due to natural seasonal cycles can impact the accuracy of change detection, potentially leading to false positives or negatives. | |
