International Workshop on Forest Carbon EmissionsTechnical Session 3: State of the Art Technology for Carbon Stock
Assessment and MonitoringJakarta, 3 – 5 March 2015
Project Background
This work is part of CIFOR projects – Global Comparative Study on REDD+ (GCS REDD) – work in 6
countries
– Sustainable Wetlands Adaptation and Mitigation Project (SWAMP) – work in > 20 countries
CIFOR is an international research organization working based on three pillars – research, capacity building and media outreach
Background
The presentation focuses on mapping of tropical peatlands in Indonesia using SAR and optical sensors
Tested various classification approaches and SAR features combined with reflectance of optical data to improve image classification
Importance of Peatlands Ecosystem
The GoI is preparing FREL submission to UNFCCC – emissions from deforestation, peat decomposition and peat fires
Indonesia covers >80% (~20 Mha in 1990 out of 24 Mha) of tropical peatlands in SE Asia
1.1 Mha of intact peat swamp forests and 6.8 Mha of secondary peatlands forest were deforested from 1990 – 2012
CO2 Emissions from Deforestation, Peat Drainage and Peat Fires in Indonesia
Contributions of CO2 Emissions by Islands
Land Cover Classification SystemLanduse/cover classification of Indonesia for the years 1990, 1996, 2000, 2003, 2006, 2009, 2011, 2012 and 2013. Data source: LANDSAT satellite data (30 m resolution) (MOF, 2014)

Characteristics: maps based on visual interpretation of Landsat data, MMU 6.25 ha, need to assess the consistency
Not yet included in any national reporting – FREL submissions to UNFCCC during COP in Lima – issues of FD definition, REDD activity degradation/carbon stock enhancement

PLR SAR Features
Polarimetric features: alpha angle (a), entropy (b) and anisotropy (c). Two additional polarimetric features were also calculated, PolSAR random volume over ground volume ratio (RVOG_mv) based on polarimetric data inversion and accumulation of polarimetric backscatter (span in decibel / span_db)

Technical Challenges/Opportunities
Needs to upgrade technical competence in the country – ground station is available
Access to data might not be major concern – various donors/bilateral cooperations continuously comes – JICA, EU, USAID, Norway
Methods for merging SAR and optical need good knowledge of RS data pre-processing
Relatively good IT infrastructure and facilities
