This study was carried out to estimate the area of damaged forest and the volume of stand tree in burned area, Mt. Weol-A in eastern Chinju, Korea using digital maps derived from supervised classification of Landsat thematic mapper(TM) imagery as reference data. Criterion laser estimator and WinDENDRO$^{tm}$(v. 6.3b) system as a computer-aided tree ring measuring system were used to measure a volume and age of sampled tree. The sample site had been chosen in unburned areas having the same terrain condition and forest type of burned areas. The tree age, diameter at breast height, tree height and volume of the sample tree selected from sample site in unburned area were 27years, 20.9cm, 9.7m and $0.1396m^3$ respectively. Total stand volume of sample site was estimated $2.9316m^3$/0.04ha, Damaged stand volume evaluated to about $16,007m^3$ in the burned area of 218.4ha.

In this study, to solve the existing inefficient stem analysis process and expensive equipment cost problems, a method for detecting and analyzing tree rings using smartphone images was proposed and a semi-automated computer program (TRIO, Tree Ring Information) was developed. TRIO can measure the annual ring radius and save the results to Excel. Since TRIO uses smartphone images, the results may vary depending on the quality of the smartphone camera. Therefore, using the Samsung Galaxy S10 and Tap 2, 30 dics images of Pinus rigida were acquired and analyzed, and these were compared with WinDENDROTM. As a result of the study, both Samsung Galaxy S10 and S2 showed significant results with WinDENDROTM, and the R2 value of S10 had a high correlation as 0.976, and RMSE was analyzed as 0.4199, and very similar results were output. The R2 value of S2 was 0.975 and the RMSE was 0.4232, showing no significant difference from S10. Accordingly, the TRIO developed in this study analyzed the annual radius value very similar to WinDENDROTM.
