Using indigenous knowledge, remote sensing and GIS for sustainable development

1994

Joseph A. Tabor | Charles F. Hutchinson

Information describing the natural resources of any region (e.g. soil, water and vegetation) forms the base upon which sustainable development must be built. The twin challenges of providing information that can lead to sustainable development are to keep acquisition costs low and utility high. In this article an alternate approach based on several techniques of data acquisition, interpretation and management is presented. It is intended to enhance the utility and lower the cost of surveys by complementing- -not replacing--conventional survey techniques.
