Use should involve a series of aerial or satellite images of the same location to evaluate changes over time. Use could include development of indices (e.g., burning index, normalized difference vegetation index [NDVI]).
Process/Skill Questions:
How can images taken at different times (temporal scale) be used to detect changes in the environment?
What are reasons to compare images of the same location taken at different times?
How can this method be used to monitor urban development?
