Assessment in Detail
Research Report
Fundamental to any successful spatial analysis project is researching and obtaining
knowledge about the phenomenon under observation (the subject) and its environment and
geographical extent. Consequently, prior to the camp students will report on each of the
areas listed below in a research paper. The emphasis of your research paper is to briefly
summarize your investigations into each area but students should choose at least one area
to expand on and provide more detail.

importance of field observations/data to this activity.
1) Classification of the different vegetation communities at Beltana.
2) Interpretation of satellite imagery in relation to variation in cover and
photosynthetic activity (ie. identification of grazing effects from satellite imagery).
3) Identification and interpretation of change in vegetation from available satellite
images.
4) Identification and prediction of areas vulnerable to soil erosion.
5) Geo/Orthorectification of image data.
