A computer derived land use classification scheme for infrared LANDSAT imagery was developed and applied to update existing Mississippi coastline data. Inventory classifications were accomplished by photographic enlargement and photointerpretations showing color coded resources on the ground.
The application of ERTS-1 data to land and resource management in the State of Mississippi is discussed. Land use maps using various types of photographic imagery are provided to describe the nature of the engineering projects being conducted. Examples of forest maps and wildlife habitat maps are included. Some of the problems involved in applying the ERTS imagery to specific activities are reported.
