Detection of Vegetation Height in Mahakam Delta Using Remote Sensing. The vegetation height is a vertical distance between top of the vegetation to ground surface. Vegetation height is one of the parameters for vegetation growth. There are various methods to measure vegetation height; one of them is the use of remote sensing technology. This study aims to map vegetation height in Mahakam Delta by using height models derived from remote sensing data. Such models are Digital Surface Model (DSM) and Digital Terrain Model (DTM). DSM was generated using a combination of interferometric processing of ALOS PALSAR interferometry, X-SAR, Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM), and geodetic height of Icesat/GLAS satellite imagery. This integration technique incorporated the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) method. The geoid model used in this study was EGM 2008. The following step was the correction of height errors of DSM. Terrain correction was undertaken to convert DSM into DTM, while vegetation heights were obtained from subtraction of DSM and DTM. Vertical accuracy verification refers to a tolerance of 1.96σ (95%) or ~80 cm. In DSM, a vertical accuracy value of 60.4 cm was obtained so that the DSM is feasible for mapping with scale of 1: 10,000, while the DTM was 37 cm so it is also applicable for mapping with such scale. Based on the subtraction of DSM and DTM, the vegetation heights in Mahakam Delta varied between 0 and 64 m.
