Description Satellite data with ancillary watershed information was used to determine soil erosion of agriculture, forest, and rangelands in the southern portion of the Hangman Creek watershed, Benewah County, Idaho. Vegetation cover types derived from satellite data and the VICAR/IBIS image processing computer software package were determined with 89 percent accuracy. The vegetation cover types identified on the study area were dense-mixed bluegrass, pasture and brush. Soil erosion (tons/acre/year) was...
