High-Resolution Global Maps of 21st-Century Forest Cover Change
Forests in Flux Forests worldwide are in a state of flux, with accelerating losses in some regions and gains in others. Hansen et al. (p. 850) examined global Landsat data at a 30-meter spatial… Expand

Quantification of global gross forest cover loss
A globally consistent methodology using satellite imagery was implemented to quantify gross forest cover loss (GFCL) from 2000 to 2005 and to compare GFCL among biomes, continents, and countries.… Expand

Selecting and interpreting measures of thematic classification accuracy
TLDR
An error matrix is frequently employed to organize and display information used to assess the thematic accuracy of a land-cover map, and numerous accuracy measures have been proposed for summarizing the information contained in this error matrix. Expand

Making better use of accuracy data in land change studies: Estimating accuracy and area and quantifying uncertainty using stratified estimation
Abstract The area of land use or land cover change obtained directly from a map may differ greatly from the true area of change because of map classification error. An error-adjusted estimator of… Expand

Thematic accuracy of the NLCD 2001 land cover for the conterminous United States
The land-cover thematic accuracy of NLCD 2001 was assessed from a probability-sample of 15,000 pixels. Nationwide, NLCD 2001 overall Anderson Level II and Level I accuracies were 78.7% and 85.3%,… Expand
