Abstract

The present study examines the possibility to identify the different land cover types (natural and artificial) on very high resolution satellite images of the Caribbean islands Bonaire, Saba and St. Eustatius. Linking species habitat requirements with associated land cover types allows for the identification of their potential occurence on the islands.
