La mappa globale foresta/non foresta (FNF) viene generata
classificando l'immagine SAR (coefficiente di retrodiffusione) nel
mosaico SAR PALSAR-2/PALSAR globale con risoluzione di 25 m in modo che i pixel di retrodiffusione forte e
bassa vengano assegnati rispettivamente come "foresta" e "non foresta". In questo caso, per "foresta" si intende la foresta naturale
con una superficie superiore a 0,5 ettari e una copertura forestale superiore al 10%. Questa
definizione è uguale a quella dell'Organizzazione delle Nazioni Unite per l'alimentazione e l'agricoltura
(FAO). Poiché il backscatter radar della foresta
dipende dalla regione (zona climatica), la classificazione di
foresta/non foresta viene eseguita utilizzando una soglia di backscatter
dipendente dalla regione. L'accuratezza della classificazione viene
controllata utilizzando foto in situ e immagini satellitari
ottiche ad alta risoluzione.
I valori di backscatter possono variare notevolmente da un percorso all'altro
nelle aree forestali ad alta latitudine. Ciò è dovuto alla variazione
dell'intensità di retrodiffusione causata dal congelamento degli alberi in inverno.
Tieni presente che ciò potrebbe influire sulla classificazione di
foreste/non foreste.

Here, \"forest\" is defined as the natural forest\nwith the area larger than 0.5 ha and forest cover over 10%. This\ndefinition is the same as the Food and Agriculture Organization\n(FAO) definition. Since the radar backscatter from the forest\ndepends on the region (climate zone), the classification of\nForest/Non-Forest is conducted by using a region-dependent\nthreshold of backscatter. The classification accuracy is\nchecked by using in-situ photos and high-resolution optical\nsatellite images.\n\nDetailed information:\n\n- [2017 - 2020](https://www.eorc.jaxa.jp/ALOS/en/dataset/pdf/DatasetDescription_PALSAR2_FNF_v200a.pdf)\n\nAttention:\n\n- Backscatter values may vary significantly from path to path over high latitude forest areas. This is due to the change of backscattering intensity caused by freezing trees in winter. Please note that this may affect the classification of forest/non-forest.\n\n### Bands\n\n\n**Pixel Size**\n\n25 meters\n\n**Bands**\n\n| Name | Min | Max | Pixel Size | Description |\n|-------|-----|-----|------------|--------------------------------------------|\n| `fnf` | 1 | 4 | meters | Forest/Non-Forest landcover classification |\n\n**fnf Class Table**\n\n| Value | Color | Description |\n|-------|---------|------------------|\n| 1 | #00b200 | Dense Forest |\n| 2 | #83ef62 | Non-dense Forest |\n| 3 | #ffff99 | Non-Forest |\n| 4 | #0000ff | Water |\n\n### Terms of Use\n\n**Terms of Use**\n\nJAXA retains ownership of the dataset and cannot guarantee\nany problem caused by or possibly caused by using the datasets.\nAnyone wishing to publish any results using the datasets should\nclearly acknowledge the ownership of the data in the publication.\n\n### Citations\n\nCitations:\n\n- Masanobu Shimada, Takuya Itoh, Takeshi Motooka, Manabu Watanabe,\n Shiraishi Tomohiro, Rajesh Thapa, and Richard Lucas, \"New Global\n Forest/Non-forest Maps from ALOS PALSAR Data (2007-2010)\", Remote Sensing\n of Environment, 155, pp. 13-31, December 2014.\n [doi:10.1016/j.rse.2014.04.014.](https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2014.04.014)\n\n### Explore with Earth Engine\n\n| **Important:** Earth Engine is a platform for petabyte-scale scientific analysis and visualization of geospatial datasets, both for public benefit and for business and government users.
