DESIGN CONCEPTS FOR LAND USE AND NATURAL RESOURCE INVENTORIES AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS

The design, implementation, application and maintenance of inventories and information systems for land use and natural resource data are discussed in terms of the remote sensing and computer technology which has in recent years become an important feature of information system development. Basic concepts in use of that technology are outlined from the perspective of potential users of systems and data. Seventeen steps are suggested as guides in the design of systems and projects.
