A contract to inventory irrigated lands on selected areas in southern Idaho. Final report Item Info

The objective of the investigation was to determine if LANDSAT imagery can be effectively used to inventory irrigated cropland. The irrigated cropland of three test sites in Idaho were inventoried using multistage variable probability sampling procedures. Multiscale remote sensing data, LANDSAT imagery (1:1,000,000), U-2 photography (1:125,000) and large scale 70mm photography (1:8,000) were used to conduct the multistage sampling and obtain additional agricultural land use information. Multiscale photography does provide an effective means of obtaining specific agricultural land use information such as irrigation methods and crop types.
