Vegetation cover and spatial pattern analysis using Landsat TM data /

The utility of Landsat TM data was investigated for landscape-level classification of rangeland vegetation and quantification of landscape pattern at three spatial scales namely Sonora Station pastures, Sonora Station and Sutton County. Two methods of ground verification, the GPS and PHOTO methods...
