NASA DEVELOP: Colorado Ecological Forecasting

NASA DEVELOP: Colorado Ecological Forecasting: This past summer, NASA DEVELOP interns partnered with the U.S. Geological Survey and the USDA Forest Service to apply NASA EOS in creating a fine resolution forest cover classification model of Fraser Experimental Forest (FEF), located in northwestern Colorado. DEVELOP students combined Landsat 5 imagery, geospatial data, extensive field work and statistical modeling to create a series of maps to assist Forest Service partners in estimating mountain pine beetle mortality and forest stand regeneration across FEF.
