Integration of GIS, Remote Sensing and Ecological Methods for Biodiversity Inventory and Assessment Inventory and assessment of biodiversity have become essential for short-term management strategies as well as for developing and testing scientific hypotheses. Remote sensing can help procure valuable information on types of habitat, structures of vegetation, landscapes, and fragmentation, basically to assess the extent of diversity in biological species and make a record of the species extant. Methods and parameters are described briefly with the use of tables to define some of the parameters. Useful reference material is given for those interested in pursuing this topic in depth. Inventory of existing levels and spatial patterns of biodiversity are essential for short-term management strategies.
