The cover for this special issue on commercial remote sensing shows a vegetation and soil map derived from commercial HyMap hyperspectral data covering the Jasper Ridge Biological Reserve, California. Endmember names were assigned based on comparison to spectral libraries and a vegetation community map published by the Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve, Stanford University.
Black areas are unclassified.
The HyMap vegetation and soil map matches the published data reasonably well, however, in some cases, includes additional detail not present on the published map. The evaluation of five hazard maps indicated higher accuracy for the combinations in which the non-landslide group was generated by the unaligned stratified random sampling method. By applying this method, discontinuous river segments can be connected, small water areas can be separated from noise, and noise in large water areas can be eliminated. 1001 Forecasts of Monthly Averaged Daily Temperature Highs in Bowling Green, Ohio from Monthly Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies in the Eastern Pacific Ocean During the Previous Year. Robert K. Vincent Models produced with this method can only be applied to the area from which the daily maximum temperature data were recorded, but they are much simpler than models that simulate the physics of the atmosphere.
