The role geo-information technology in conservation management (case study in Lojing Reserve Forest)

Managing complex reserve forest requires up to date technology in ensuring reserve forest is under utilization. Much of the current forest management practices can be improved through the use of current technolgies icluding remote sensing, Geographic Information System (GIS) and Global Positioning S...
