      abstract = {This book demonstrates the measurement, monitoring,  mapping, and modeling of forest resources. It explores  state-of-the-art techniques based on open-source software &  R statistical programming and modeling specifically, with a  focus on the recent trends in data mining/machine learning  techniques and robust modeling in forest resources.  Discusses major topics such as forest health assessment,  estimating forest biomass & carbon stock, land use forest  cover (LUFC), dynamic vegetation modeling (DVM) approaches,  forest-based rural livelihood, habitat suitability  analysis, biodiversity and ecology, and biodiversity, the  book presents novel advances and applications of RS-GIS and  R in a precise and clear manner. By offering insights into  various concepts and their importance for real-world  applications, it equips researchers, professionals, and  policy-makers with the knowledge and skills to tackle a  wide range of issues related to geographic data, including  those with scientific, societal, and environmental  implications.},
