Daftar Isi:
- Data and code used to assess trends in forest vegetation condition in India's Tiger Reserves, using historical Landsat 5 TM data. The Javascript code is to be run on Google Earth Engine Code Editor (sign-up required). See 00_README.txt or 00_README.html or 00_README.md for details. The algorithm matches 25 study Tiger Reserves with a Wildlife Sanctuary each. For each of these matched pairs, the Landsat 5 TM timeseries data are divided into 'before' and 'after' epochs based on the Tiger Reserve's year of declaration. A before-after control-impact-style analysis is performed to assess vegetation condition in Tiger Reserves compared to their matched Wildlife Sanctuaries. The GeoTIFF files are park-wise multiband geo-referenced result rasters, and one CSV file contains a table of park-wise summary results, and the other contains attributes of each study Tiger Reserve and its selected and candidate matched Wildlife Sanctuaries. Code was written by PK.
