Abstract

New remote sensing techniques will be widely used in wild land research and management in the years ahead. A review of our initial efforts with one facet of remote sensing - large-scale 70-mm. color aerial photography - will stimulate appreciation of its vast potential. This potential can be categorized into possibly valuable applications with unique advantages. This system can ultimately be related to more powerful sensor systems, whose efficient use awaits only research and development.
