Abstract

The digital images can be used in the forestry domain in metric aims or photo interpretation. The metric aims can be used to obtain the topographic plans necessary like map-drawing support in the workings of forestry activity. In the aims of photointerpretation, this can be used to differentiate and separate the stands, to photointerpretation the class of age, to photointerpretation the different structural characteristics of stands, in analyses of the health of forests and surfaces affected by different biotic and abiotic factors.
