Canopy reflectance modeling in a tropical wooded grassland

A study area was selected in West Africa in order to establish a relationship between rainfall and grassland productivity, and also to provide ground measurements and support for the GIMMS investigation of the use of AVHRR vegetation index data for monitoring grassland biomass and productivity. Field data collection, image and collateral data acquisition, model development, and data analysis and processing are briefly discussed

Future and present needs of remote sensing in geography

Need for improved data analysis, information processing, research programs, and teaching methods in remote sensing in geograph
