遥感日益成为林学家用途广泛和行之有效的管理手段。航空像片是资料的一个主要来源,近年来,美国陆地卫星遥感图像正成为新的资料来源。陆地卫星平台上装有两套传感器系统:即1972年开始的多光谱扫描仪和1982年开始的专题制图仪。加拿大遥感中心(CCRS)卫星地面站接收和处理的卫星数据、图像,可以加工成影像和计算机使用的 Remote sensing is increasingly becoming a widely used and effective management tool by forest scientists. Aerial photographs are a major source of information and in recent years, the United States terrestrial satellite remote sensing imagery is becoming a new source of information. Two satellite sensor systems were installed on the land satellite platform: a multispectral scanner that started in 1972 and a thematic cartographer that started in 1982. Satellite data received and processed by the Canadian Remote Sensing Center (CCRS) satellite ground stations, images that can be processed into images and computerized
