Abstract
Urban forests are trees and other woody vegetation growing in an urban environment. Urban forests have been shown to have economic, aesthetic, and ecological benefits (Gatrell & Jensen, 2002; Nowak & Crane, 2002). Monitoring the health of Urban Forests is important to maintain a healthy environment for humans in their principal habitat. Our research focused on developing methods to monitor urban forest biomass using remote sensing data.
