When mapping land cover with satellite imagery in montane tropical regions, varying illumination angles and ecological zones can obscure the differences between spectral responses of old-growth forest, secondary forest and agricultural lands. We used multi-date, Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) imagery to map secondary forests, agricultural lands and old-growth forests in the Talamanca Mountain Range in southern Costa Rica. With stratification by illumination and ecological zone, the overall accuracy fbr this classification was 87% with a Kappa coefficient of 0.83. We also examined spectral responses to forest successional stage, ecological zone and aspect illumination for the TM Tasselled Cap indices, TM (2 x 6)/7, TM 4/5 and TM difference bands, and whether using digital data from multiple decades improved classification accuracy. Digital maps of ecological zones should be useful for large-scale mapping of land use and forest successional stage in complex montane regions such as those in Central America.
