Target:
An arid rangeland research site (for some 30 years) for long term monitoring
of arid grazing management practices and impacts, vegetation dynamics, and
landscape processes. Kunoth Paddock is the site of long-term monitoring of
semi-arid grassland and woodland areas. The area has been mapped and monitored
using a variety of airborne and satellite data. The site was a major site for
the Japanese GRNS projects. It has also been extensively mapped using airborne
video as well as Daedalus data and Hyperspectral casi
and HyMap data. The objective at Kunoth is
to assess how well the products based on airborne data can be translated to the
satellite platform.
