Biodiversity Characterisation at Landscape Level in Western Ghats India using Satellite Remote Sensing and GIS
Title
Biodiversity Characterisation at Landscape Level in Western Ghats India using Satellite Remote Sensing and GIS
Description
This project is a pioneering effort to create geo-spatial database on vegetation cover types, disturbance regimes and biological richness. The spatial data have also been linked with the species database of Botanical Survey of India-Red Data Book and field sample data laid down in the different strata of vegetation. Attempts have also been made to overlay Botanical Survey of India-Red Data Book-species locations (as indicated habitats) on the maps generated in the present study. Available on CD Rom through the Map and Data Library. CD #302.
