Training Material

On the subpages we provide training material to get more familiar with the open source package of Forest Foresight. We recommend the following steps:

Open

1. Installing dependencies (R and Rstudio) Installing R and Rstudio

2. installing the Forest Foresight Package Installing the Forest Foresight package

3. Setting up the local R environment for Forest Foresight Environment configuration (ff_environment)

4. Loading the area you want to work on (the AOI). This is not required but using the same AOI for the whole process makes things easier and is recommended for this tutorial. Loading the Area Of Interest (AOI)

5. Downloading the preprocessed data, models and/or predictions with ff_sync Downloading Forest Foresight data

6. using the package to train a model (if necessary) ff_run: using the Forest Foresight package for training and predicting

7. Using a trained model to make predictionsff_run: using the Forest Foresight package for training and predicting

8. Evaluate the predictions in a historic setting to evaluate the effectiveness of the model. ff_analyze: Analyzing the results
