Monitoring forest structure using remote sensing techniques strongly supports conservation strategies that take into account biodiversity and the impact of the global carbon cycle. The main contribution of this work is the integration of an inverted geometric-optical model, a regional scaling-based endmember extraction method and a spatial interpolation technique to achieve quantitative monitoring of forest canopy structural changes in the Three Gorges region of China. The approach includes the careful assessment of various scaling aspects namely ranging from multi-spectral to hyperspectral, from high spatial resolution to low spatial resolution, from mono-temporal to multi-temporal and from local to regional study areas. Systematic and structural monitoring of forest ecosystem changes will be feasible at unprecedented quality based on the suggested approach.
