The invention discloses a method for detecting subcompartment forestry resources, comprising the following steps: step 1, checking the extraction of subcompartment; 2, collecting and processing forestry data; 3, proces that remote sensing image; 4, detect that change of the remote sensing image in the early and late period; 5, image visual interpretation; 6, supplemental investigation; 7, update that data model; 8, forestry resource information management; 9, update that output; In the first step, random sampling or typical sampling method can be used to check the extraction of subcompartments; When adopting typical sample selection, the appraised objects should be classified according to forest species, woodland type, tree species type and age group. The invention is highly effective andfeasible, and takes 3S technology and mathematical model as main means, and a forestry resource renewal method based on investigation subcompartment data, and puts forward a complete solution of annual output number of forestry resource space and attribute data, and the data detection result is objective and accurate.
