Using Landsat TM Imagery to Estimate LAI in a Eucalyptus Plantation Rebecca A. Megown, Mike Webster, and Shayne Jacobs Abstract The use of remote sensing in relation to determining parameters of the forest industry is increasing world wide. In South Africa, there has been limited success with using remote sensing imagery to predict ground based leaf area index (LAI) measurements. This study investigates two commonly used vegetation indices, NDVI and NDVIc. The NDVI does not correlate well with
