ACRP3 MOTI Comparing MODIS Satellite versus terrestrial Inventory driven Carbon Estimates vor Austrian Forests
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to compare Net Primary Productivity (NPP) estimates from MODIS satellite information with productivity estimates derived from the Austrian National Forest Inventory between 2000 and 2009. For this period overlapping data records are available, thus allowing statistically supportable comparisons to be made. The MODIS driven NPP estimates will come from two sources: (1) the available online database and (2) calculated with the ’offline’ code developed by the NTSG Lab of Prof. Running in Missoula, Montana using Austrian daily climate data and the BFW vegetation distribution map. We are specifically interested in analysing the error structures of each dataset and solving the spatial and temporal difficulties in direct comparisons. Successful resolution of these issues will allow more efficient use of currently collected data.
