| Abstract | The methods of forest inventory data acquisition, based on the analysis of remotely sensed images have been well tested and implemented during the last decade. The predominant visual interpretation and pixel-based automated techniques are now being gradually replaced by the object-based image classification at multiple levels. This paper describes an experiment using medium-format digital aerial imagery for the purpose of automated updating of the existing GIS forest management database (LHPO). The method emphasises the pre-processing phase, where various image transforms and additional channels i.e. spectral ratios and vegetation indices (NDVI), low-pass filters, Sobel edge and GLCM (grey level co-occurrence matrix) texture measures are derived from the original dataset. The layer stack is then transferred into the object-oriented classification environment together with the existing thematic vector layer, and analysed on three hierarchical object levels. The classification involves the recognition of the successional stage of forest compartments and the estimation of tree species composition in terms of area coverage. In addition, age information on the GIS forestry management map can be updated and the spatial distribution of classes corrected using the multi-scale object relations of the former analysis. The advances of the automated procedure based on sequential processing of image objects are partially covered. Moreover, aspects of utilisation of the medium-format colour infra-red images (CIR) as an alternative to traditional aerial photos and very high resolution (VHR) satellite data, were considered. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
