Combining data from the Swiss National Forest Inventory and from remote sensing for small-area estimations in forestry A design-unbiased small estimator was tested in this study. This estimator combines terrestrial data from the Swiss National Forest Inventory (LFI) with ancillary data from stereo aerial images and airborne laser scanner (ALS) data. The estimator was tested for the two target variables: the percentage of forest and the timber volume. The efficiency of the estimator depends on the model precision of the target variable obtained with remote sensing data and other ancillary spatial data, which can potentially explain the spatial variation of the target variable. Canopy heights derived from stereo aerial images (ADS40) and ALS data were used as ancillary data. Regression models for the timber volume and the forest/non-forest decision of the LFI samples were calibrated within the cantons Appenzell Inner Rhodes and Appenzell Outer Rhodes and provided a coefficient of determination of roughly 60...
