註釋This report outlines a protocol for assessing the thematic accuracy of large-scale ecosystem mapping. The protocol presents a statistically unbiased approach to evaluating the acceptability or accuracy of the mapping. The thematic content of randomly selected map polygons, or small areas, is assessed by various means, with the methods varying in precision & objectivity. The protocol requires the development of a sampling plan that articulates decisions about such matters as protocol level, sample size, assessment method, and target error. The approach outlined in this protocol provides a means of obtaining some overall, statistically valid scores to rate the accuracy of predictive ecosystem mapping, terrestrial ecosystem mapping, or other ecosystem maps. The results can be used as a component of quality assurance or for presenting statistics on the accuracy of mapping.
