| Description | The author has identified the following significant results. It appears that identification of corn and soybeans as separate classes may not be feasible for the part of the growing season around August 15. It is hoped that at other points in the growing season separation of corn from soybeans will be possible. Visual examination of September 5 imagery indicates that later in the growing season, it is possible. The resolution of the 1:300,000 scale enlargement remained sharp enough to distinguish features important for making soil association maps. The land use pattern (range vs cultivated) was sharp as were the stream bottoms, stream valley sides, and stock ponds. The resolution of the 1:1,000,000 scale enlargement was less sharp on detail but it appears that some features could be quantitatively analyzed. Among these are the hydrologic features present such as stock ponds and the streams. It would appear that the total area of stock pond water on a frame could be measured, and, after ground truth established their average depth, the volume of water stored could be calculated and be monitored. |
