In those several years have remarkable new deployment of a sensing tool and technology. The direct sensing basedon the data base such as the google earth and world imargery is also getting popular. Our groups accumulate a number of field investigation experiences of world mangrove forests in last half century.
The team are carring the data base construction by GIS and World Imargry. We like to explain the current result of the Indochina coastmangrove mapping as the case study.
