Description :
The development of inventory activities in the field of forest damage assessment and monitoring during the last decade in Germany and the present state are recorded as far as remote sensing has been involved. Any forest inventory is influenced by external factors, and the resulting difficulties for an introduction of new technologies are described. The following tasks and/or methods are discussed: global approaches to deforestation monitoring; working experience from local and regional case studies; vegetation and vegetation-damage monitoring in urban forestry; sampling approaches for large areas.
