Abstract
Remote sensing can be integrated into models of deforestation processes to identify deforestation hotspots at broad spatial scales, segment an area in terms of deforestation processes, estimate control variables, calibrate state variables, validate model predictions and, eventually, invert spatially-explicit human ecological models
