Dear All, I am Ricky Jacob, a project Student from India who is working on Forest Inventories. Input data: Plot(area = .1 ha) data having the following information: 1) Basal Area 2)Tree Density 3)Volume So I am applying this information to the corresponding pixels in the satellite imagery of the study area. I also have given the same values to a 3x3 window around that pixel. Inventory is taken compartmentwise and so this information of all the plots in a compartment is taken and generalised over all the pixels falling in that compartment. To make the estimation more realistic, i decided to use the impute opton in r. The yai requires me to enter the x and y variable. I stll haven't figured out how i should put my datasets to impute the values of variables like Basal area, volume for only those pixels for which no data is available. is msn or randomforest a better option. I tried to work on the example MoscowMtStJoe dataset. But I wasn't able to figure out how I should put in my data. I have records which have both satellite and attribute data and also have records with only satellite data. I need to impute attribute data into those records alone for which no attribute data is available without altering values in the records having the attribute information. Hope for a response Regards Ricky Jacob
