"The major objective of this study was to determine what information could be obtained using large-scale stereo aerial photography to alert managers to probable changes in rangeland conditions. The objective of this technical reference is to document the results of this study, to provide managers with guidelines for the acquisition of large-scale photography as well as document its application with emphasis on livestock grazing management"--Page 5
