Stereoscopic viewing of softcopy airborne video imagery for low altitude application

Creator:: Hinkson, Mary E.
Abstract:: In recent years, the field of videography (the process of obtaining video imagery) has taken on greater significance in remote sensing applications. Today studies are being conducted to determine the potential uses and capabilites of airborne video imagery. In the past, satellite or aerial photography analysis and interpretation has been...

The feasibility of applying air photo interpretation to the locating, analyzing and development of wind power sites

Creator:: Maule, Peter Anthony
Abstract:: If wind power is to become a viable energy alternative, a rapid and reliable cost effective methodology must be established, whereby large areas can be surveyed for windy sites and those sites can be evaluated. Based primarily on locating wind deformed vegetation, this paper establishes the feasibility of using air...

Terrain analysis : historical perspective and future direction

Creator:: Lane, Forest J.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to review the historical development of the central ideas of military geography and terrain analysis and to examine these new research initiatives from that perspective. Although the mobility and technological aspects of warfare have changed rapidly, the essential geographic nature of warfare has remained...

Videographic and GPS techniques for monitoring active glacial surge: Bering Glacier, Alaska

Creator:: Thatcher, P. Anthony
Abstract:: Aerial videography in combination with GPS were used to monitor the active surge of Alaska's Bering Glacier. The large aerial extent of the study area and the unpredictable weather in coastal Alaska required innovative techniques to be used in order to successfully monitor the surge environment. A portable aerial videographic...

Monitoring sand dune processes at the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area : can pre-vegetated conditions be restored?

Creator:: Mitteager, Wendy Ann
Abstract:: The Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area is managed by the Siuslaw Forest division of the United States Forest Service (USFS). This area has gradually been overcome by vegetation since the 1950's, originating with the exotic European Beach Grass (Ammophila arenaria). The invasion of this exotic vegetation has resulted in a...

Microcomputer simulation for subsurface water potential on hillslope

Creator:: Malstaff, Greg
Abstract:: This research paper focuses upon subsurface flow because of its dominant influence on the other types of hilislope water flow processes. The basic theory of water movement is quickly discussed in order to build the reader's general background knowledge. With this background, the journey starts into the poorly understood realm...

A study of the geomorphological processes at the Siltcoos foredune breaching experiment site

Creator:: Hanna, James M.
Abstract:: The focus of this study was to examine and record the physical changes brought about by the breaching of the Siltcoos Foredune. The origin of the dunes and the physical processes that operate there must be considered before effects due to the breach can be studied. A series of field...

A map enhancement for terrain visualization under Night Vision Goggle compatible lighting systems

Creator:: Thompson, Wiley C.
Abstract:: For the Army aviator, Night Vision Goggle (NVG) flight in the tactical rotarywing profile is a very demanding, task saturated environment. Map navigation is just one of the many tasks that must be accomplished during flight. The dim, monochromatic lighting required for NVG flight alters map colors, decreases image detail...

Storm-induced mass wasting in forested areas: conditions and characteristics for three Western Oregon study sites

Creator:: Robben, Joshua L.
Abstract:: Much of the rich forestlands of Oregon are subject to frequent mass wasting events, resulting in severe environmental and economic damages. Extensive research has shown that this landslide hazard is often exacerbated by many management activities. Following a severe storm event which triggered thousands of landslides, the Oregon Department of...

Eolian landforms and wind power prospecting in the Central Columbia River Basin

Creator:: McClenahan, Michael R.
Abstract:: Sand dunes are used as indicators of wind power potential and examples are presented of their application as a prospecting technique at four study sites in the Central Columbia River Basin. Aerial reconnaissance is combined with interpretation of photography and topographic maps as a basis of sand dune analysis. Sand...
