Abstract: Remote sensing imagery and advanced image analysis methods show high potential for monitoring forest habitat issues. The objective of this paper is to provide ready-to-use information on forest habitats by conducting a multi-scale approach for the delineation of such, and the assessment of their conservation status on multi-spectral satellite imagery of high and very high spatial resolution, as well as LiDAR data. This information should help forest managers in the decision-making process and contribute to a sustainable management. The evaluation of the quality of forest habitats is performed on suitable indicators such as structure and composition on broad-scale for whole landscapes and on fine-scale for individual protected sites. In this context, information layers and direct habitat mapping can help to address the complex task of monitoring forest habitats and to harmonize information output.

GIS as a technology has come a long way, from
the early adoption of technical wizardry to the
ubiquitous, if unconscious use by the masses. The
emergence of a GISociety is on its way through
technological development, theoretical and empirical
scientific research and inclusion of technology
into education with increasing pedagogical justification.
Defining new dimensions of hard- and software,
brainware and orgware are all needed to
further enhance the GISociety with new geospatial
innovations.
