Title: A feasibility study to evaluate aerial photogrammetry as a tool for assessing changes in Kenai River riparian habitat
Description: During 2001 and 2002, a feasibility study was conducted to evaluate the ability to apply aerial photogrammetric technologies to older photography to measure changes in riparian habitat as changes in bank position and cover. This document reports on these technologies, which appear to be very acceptable for measuring riparian habitat changes and promise to be a useful tool for resource management, particularly for long term monitoring of habitat change and assisting in the development of watershed management plans.
