GIS在森林景观监测方面的应用

Application of Geographic Information System in Monitoring Forest Landscape

我国森林资源不足且分布不均，所以，森林景观监测对于维护生态系统平衡和保护生物多样性是非常重要的。地理信息系统(GIS)是输入、储存、处理、分析、展示地理或空间数据的一种有效手段。通过GIS，森林的卫星图象、航空照片等数据可用来进行景观监测，并且为用户快速、有效地提供图象、地图和其它所需资料。因此，GIS在监测森林景观变化和保护森林资源方面是一个十分有用的工具。

Geographic information system(GIS) is a effective means of inputing ,storing, treating, analysing and showing geographic or spacial data.Landscape can be monitored by GIS,satellite photograph and aeronautical photograph, which can rapidly effectively provide user with map,photograph and the other data.Thus,GIS is a important tool for monitoring change of forest landscape and protecting forest resources.
