Accurate automated detection of individual tree crowns from aerial imagery constitutes an important task. In recent years, fir stands in the Perm Krai have experienced mass dieback due to the impact of the Ussuri bark beetle (Polygraphus proximus Blandford). Effective management of such forests requires a system capable of recognizing tree crowns across different sanitary-condition categories: crowns with green needles, crowns with discolored needles, and trees lacking needles.
