Description
Summary:The supervised classification of mountain forests in Carpathian National Nature Park was carried out in order to clarify the spatial distribution of their species composition and phytosanitary conditions. The area of deciduous forests in territory of the Carpathians is constantly increasing comparing with coniferous forests. The investigation of affection factors for Carpathian spruce forests established that the damaged forest areas are mainly located in relief depressions. On the basis of Sentinel-2 satellite data the phytosanitary condition of individual forest areas was analyzed. The significant differences in brightness values and vegetation indices NDVI and MSI between diseased and healthy areas were determined.
