Common use of Imagery Method Clause in Contracts

Imagery Method. Like many of the other metrics, stand density is dependent on the existence of ITOs. Because of varying tree composition throughout the project area, one single TDA does not have the flexibility to address disparate scenarios. Ideally, the algorithm would first evaluate the area of interest, attempt a preliminary classification of composition types, and then execute the respective delineation function that best accommodates the spectral and spatial composition of that type. Types would vary according to presence of conifer/deciduous trees and maybe even species. However, the single TDA is still showing promising results for the majority of sample plots within the project area.
