However, its reliability in specific regions has not been sufficiently evaluated. We assessed its accuracy in part of Slovakia through visual interpretation of Sentinel 2 imagery conducted independently by three operators. The GFC dataset achieved 95% producer\u2019s accuracy and 78% user\u2019s accuracy in detecting tree cover loss. Therefore, it could slightly overestimate loss in the study area, especially in small patches and edge pixels, as the marginality of pixels explained a large part of the disagreement (AUC\u2009=\u20090.76). However, we could also underestimate the loss during its visual identification, as it proved more challenging than anticipated (average agreement between operators was 85%). To complement this analysis, we compared GFC tree cover loss with official forestry logging records across Slovakia. Both datasets reported similar total areas of loss and largely consistent spatial patterns, with a median difference of 6% in their ratio within forestry mapping units. Nonetheless, we identified regions where GFC reported substantially more loss, potentially reflecting errors in forestry records, as well as regions where forestry records indicated more loss, possibly due to temporal misclassification. Overall, the GFC dataset represents an appropriate source for monitoring tree cover loss in Slovakia, provided that users are aware of its limitations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10661-026-15131-5","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,12]],"date-time":"2026-03-12T03:05:30Z","timestamp":1773284730000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Accuracy assessment of the Global Forest Change tree cover loss by visual interpretation and comparison with forestry logging records in Slovakia"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"198","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9194-5832","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michal","family":"Druga","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-7467-5112","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vladim\u00edr","family":"\u0160ag\u00e1t","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5439-1081","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Adam","family":"Rusinko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"15131_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","unstructured":"Breidenbach, J., Ellison, D., Petersson, H., Korhonen, K.
