    Forestry

    Many government, state, and private forestry organizations and agencies today utilize geospatial technology such as GIS (geographic information systems) and satellite imagery for various applications supporting analysis, assessment, and management of our forests.

    Many applications of forestry and natural resources require accurate land cover and change analysis. Changing conditions due to urban sprawl, as well as increasing forest fragmentation, make land cover and change detection analysis an extremely important consideration for management, planning and inventory mapping. This includes ecosystem and species diversity, forest productivity, reforestation, forest health, conservation of soil, water resources, and nutrient cycling.

    Fire and Emergency Mapping

    Satellite images and GIS maps support fire and emergency personnel for responding to emergency situations, hazardous fuels reduction, community assistance, firefighting, rehabilitation, and restoration. In order to model a forest fire, the techniques for obtaining, analyzing and displaying spatial information in a timely and cost-effective manner are needed which has proven not only to be possible, but incredibly efficient and effective.

    Deforestation

    Deforestation has been attributed to socio-demographic factors, such as population growth and the political economy of class structure, and specific exploitation activities like commercial logging, forest farming, fuel wood gathering, agriculture and pasture clearance for cattle production.
