Area calculation of forest cover classes.
Hi, Without knowing any details of what you did, the general procedure is: Use your fitted Random Forest or SVM model to predict the class for each pixel in your region of interest - the predict() function. Use standard spatial data methods to aggregate the resulting spatial data, or even standard non-spatial methods, since you know the pixel size - perhaps aggregate() or even table(). Sarah

Dear List, Please I have carried out an RF and SVM forest cover classification in R. I want to determine the area in hectors for each of the forest cover classes. I have not been able to find my way out on it. I wanted to ask if it is possible to do this in R and will be glad to have assistance on how to carry that out. And possibly some lead codes to use (I am still learning R and and how to code.) Thank you. Best regards, Enoch
