Information technologies for rangeland monitoring:what is available and what will be available in the future ?

摘要：

Key points:We discuss technologies and the systems associated with them that can enhance decision making by rangeland managers. We focus on technology and systems that are publicly available to assist land managers as opposed to those used in research arenas. Technology can provide data that allows informed management decisions across large scales and more repeatably through time. We discuss three groups of technologies and information management systems : (I) technologies to acquire spatial information (e.g. Remote sensing) and the software that turns that data into useable management information ; (ii) technologies for remote control and management of infrastructure, livestock and natural resources ( e.g. Telemetry, automatic drafting systems) ; and ( iii) information systems for planning and reporting at larger scales and at typically governmental levels of decision making.
