Imaging sensors designed to remotely observe the Earth can be used for land-cover studies of peatlands and other areas that provide carbon storage or other important ecosystem services. In order to improve our knowledge of remote sensing and peatland research, this study employed multiple types of remotely sensed data for the evaluation and testing of methodologies that aimed to map different characteristics of peatland vegetation. The study was conducted in two peatland ecosystems: 1) near James Bay Quebec, which is an important site for hydropower generation, and 2) Mer Bleue, an ombrotrophic bog near Ottawa, Ontario. For the first site and study, high-resolution aerial photographs and aerial hyperspectral imagery were used to generate la...
