Remote Sensing - Visual Interpretation

Module 2 of Remote Sensing begins our foray into identifying features on an aerial photograph.  Having learned of the various films that are used and viewing the resulting photographs it is easy to see that all have their purposes.  This week we identified the different levels of tone and texture as shown in map 1, and we took a stab at identifying features based on size and shape, pattern, shadow, and association as shown in map 2.  We also compared two photos of the same area, one true color and one false color.
