Abstract
In the frame of the project EUFORA (European Forest Observations using Radars) a forest map of a part of Switzerland was completed with ERS SAR interferometry. Particular attention was paid to the realization of an accurate end product and to the presentation of the map. The data analysis, the classification method, the accuracy and visualization of the map are summarized in this contribution
