Abstract

This study uses Sentinel satellite data to estimate forest quality over a large area, focusing on Beijing. By combining ground survey data with remote sensing, a random forest model predicts forest parameters. The results show a correlation coefficient of 0.60-0.76 and a relative root mean square error of 0.09-0.39. Average tree height and diameter at breast height (DBH) had the highest accuracy (75%-80%), followed by canopy density and plant number density (68%-75%). The spatial agreement between predicted and actual forest quality indicates the model's effectiveness.
