Mapping diseased oak trees using ADAR imagery

Kelly, M. and D. Liu. 2004. Mapping diseased oak trees using ADAR imagery. Geocarto International 19(1): 57-64 

We investigated the ability of high spatial-resolution 4-band imagery (Airborne Digital Acquisition and Registration - ADAR) to discern moisture stress in trees affected by Sudden Oak Death (SOD). The results suggest an inability to automate mapping of moisture stress in oaks using ADAR imagery, and limited success in using methods that require extensive field data. Pdf download.
