Title: Integrated landscape analysis
Description: The Bureau of Land Management manages 264 million acres of public lands. This presents unique challenges and opportunities for management of these lands, especially on tight budgets. The Integrated Library Analysis (ILA) process can provide BLM administrators with a tool for helping to manage these lands. The ILA methodology uses Geographic Information Systems technology to assemble and integrate digital data. Then experienced specialists put all this data and knowledge together to provide a complete analysis of landscapes. This report discusses some of the many ways that ILA can be used to support land management activities.
