Book Description
Provides a case study of the development of aerial photo interpretation (API) keys that may assist resource managers in the identification of the classification units of the Northwestern Ontario Forest Ecosystem Classification (NWOFEC) on 1:15,840 scale black & white photos. The first part contains a brief historical overview of site classification activities in Ontario, and describes the NWOFEC system, some of its current applications, and past efforts to interpret photos and map the classification units. Basic techniques for interpreting landform, soil, and vegetation features on intermediate-scale black & white aerial photos are also presented. The method of developing API keys is then detailed, including phases of data collection, photo interpretation, and key construction. The final section demonstrates all aspects of development of the keys, including description of the study area's soil and vegetation characteristics, the creation of toposequence models, the framework for each key, and photo stereograms that illustrate a variety of interpreted features. The full API keys are presented in stand-alone format in appendices along with tips for applying them.

Northwestern Ontario Forest Ecosystem Interpretations
Author: G. D. Racey
Publisher: Thunder Bay : Northwestern Ontario Forest Technology Development Unit, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources
ISBN:
Category : Forest ecology
Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
Guide to assist in the application of the Northwestern Ontario forest ecosystem classification to forest management in northwestern Ontario. Interpretations relate vegetation, soil, site, and climatic factors to limitations or opportunities for forest management. The guide introduces the concept of forest ecosystem interpretations; presents the concept as a method of applying the classification to site-specific management through a set of generalized treatment units that may be further adapted to accommodate local variations in site or climate; describes some basic silvicultural interpretations, followed by interpretations for wildlife; and deals with incorporation of the system into operational forestry surveys.
