Estimation of Important Scenic Beauty Covariates from Remotely Sensed Data
… in regression analyses. A color-infrared aerial photograph from the National Aerial Photography Program (NAPP) was scanned to achieve a pixel ground resolution of one meter. The digital aerial photograph was rectified and used as the remotely sensed data. Since the aerial photograph was …

Evaluating Satellite Image Classification For Bottomland Surveys in Ozark National Scenic Riverways
The National Park Service has used aerial photographs in a preliminary survey of landcover in Ozark National Scenic Riverways. This thesis evaluated the feasibility of using satellite images in further surveys of the park. Aerial photographs were digitized to allow computerized comparison with …

Plant Response to the Barstow to Las Vegas Motorcycle Race of November, 1974
… judged as equal. Methods employed consisted of aerial photograph analysis just before and after the race. On site ground measurements were taken four years after the 1974 motorocycle event. Measurements of diversity, stability, productivity, and community quality were calculated. The results …

Vegetation and Soil Patterns at a Mountain Wetland Ecotone
… nutrients and metals. I assessed historical aerial photographs to gain a temporal history on the patterns of infilling. The results indicate that trees decrease in density across the ecotone towards the peatland interior, and that trees are likely to be growing on hummock features and within …

Distribution, causes and nature of natural landslides in Devon and Cornwall
… methods used for primary data collection were aerial photograph interpretation, airborne thematic mapper data, terrain evaluation and limited field mapping for ground truthing purposes. This landslide susceptibility map used probability to assess the relative importance of parameters important …

The feasibility of using remote sensing and field-based checks to monitor the impact caused by collection of wood in the Eastern Cape/Ciskei forest and thicket formations
… be superior. Maps were drawn from multitemporal aerial photograph sequences and from Landsat and SPOT satellite images. These maps showed that there has been relatively little change in area of woody vegetation in the study area since 1956. However, field studies showed that vegetation community …
