Stem Volume, Biomass and Carbon Statistics

The products combine EO based stratification and in-situ data from sample based national forest inventories. One product provides statistics on the present status while the second product provides statistics on the change of the carbon stocks. For all statistical results the sampling error and a error budged is provided, that accounts for all sources of errors.

These products enable highest cost efficiency. Two opportunities results:
  • Minimisation of cost to achieve a certain level of accuracy
  • Maximisation of information under a given budget.
For detailed specifications, see the Product Sheet.

Product (1):

Stem Volume, biomass and the carbon stock estimates in table format according to UFCCC and Kyoto reporting requirements - Status including error budgets to deriven the minimum reliable estimate.

Product (2):

Stem Volume, biomass and the carbon stock estimates in table format according to UFCCC and Kyoto reporting requirements - Changes also including error budgets to deriven the minimum reliable estimate.
