arXiv:2606. 26194v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Urban tree biomass remains less spatially explicitly quantified than biomass in managed forests because many estimates rely on inventories or coarse products that cannot resolve individual crowns or fine-scale heterogeneity.

Accurate vegetation-community classification is essential for ecological monitoring, habitat assessment, and evidence-based environmental management in heterogeneous landscapes. Existing studies often rely on standalone tree ensembles or generic neural networks, although fine-grained ecological classes frequently exhibit overlapping spectral, topographic, and structural characteristics.

Over the past decade, interest in applying machine learning (ML) to automate forest monitoring has grown significantly. However, existing training datasets are predominantly drawn from North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, leaving a critical gap in African forestry data.
