Within the study area an overall accuracy of 77% is achieved using an independent test dataset. For more detailed information on specific accuracies, please consult the linked paper.

Innerhalb des Studiengebiets wird eine Gesamtgenauigkeit von 77% mit einem unabhaengigen Testdatensatz erreicht. Fuer genaue Angaben der Genauigkeiten ist das verbundene paper hinzuzuziehen.

Additional data availability / Verfügbarkeit zusätzlicher Daten

In addition to discrete values, a map with probabilities depicting the model's prediction certainty are available. Due to the large file size, it cannot be shared in this repository. Please contact the authors.

Zusätzlich zur den diskreten Werten gibt es eine Karte, die die Wahrscheinlichkeiten jeder Baumart darstellen, die das Modell errechnet hat. Aufgrund der Dateigröße kann diese nicht in diesem repository verfügbar gemacht werden. Bitte kontaktieren Sie die Autoren.
