For both agencies there is <br />a recognition of the more "proven" performance of U-2 eIR techniques, and the <br />more "experimental" application of ~andsat data. A "best-effort" agreement has <br />been the spirit of the study, with U-2 eIR providing the best assurance of <br />accuracy of interpretation, while pushing the limits of Landsat digital analysis <br />in hopes that techniques will be found to apply elsewhere in the state for <br />similarly needed data. <br />Within these constructs, the objective of the study is to classify and map <br />the water related land use and the wetlands of the Uinta Basin. <br /> <br />REVIEW OF LITERATURE <br /> <br />Three types of literature were surveyed in connection with the study __ <br /> <br />wetland classification, remote sensing application to wetlands, and Utah water <br /> <br />-4- <br />
