A look at Alaskan resources with Landsat dataLandsat data remains a vital tool for the management of resources in Alaska. Utilization of these data by many agencies in Alaska trends toward the solution to operational problems in a wide spectrum of disciplinary applications. Four examples of current applications are reviewed briefly: mapping of coastal sediment plumes, mapping of coastal zone ecosystems, mapping of landform and ground cover for proposed national parks and forests, and evaluation of seismic risks for a proposed hydroelectric project.
