AN EVALUATION OF EARTH RESOURCES TECHNOLOGY SATELLITE (ERTS-1) IMAGERY FOR DELINEATING SNOW EXTENT: CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK, OREGON ABSTRACT: In the Pacific Northwest snow is an important natural resource. The inability to accurately measure or monitor this resource throughout remote areas is a hindrance to water management. ERTS-1 imagery provides the capability for extracting a significant amount of scientific information and data regarding snow conditions in accessible and...
