REMOTE SENSING BASED DETECTION OF FORESTED WETLANDS: AN EVALUATION OF LIDAR, AERIAL IMAGERY, AND THEIR DATA FUSION

Multi-spectral imagery provides a robust and low-cost dataset for assessing wetland extent and quality over broad regions and is frequently used for wetland inventories. However in forested wetlands, hydrology is obscured by tree canopy making it difficult to detect with multi-spectral imagery alone...
