| Abstract: |
The article focuses on the impervious surface mapping (ISM) system, a pilot project launched in Columbus, Ohio. It discusses the mechanism of the ISM which integrates orthoimagery and remote-sensing imagery or the light detection and ranging data. It mentions that the Woolpert Inc. proposed the pilot project for the Ohio Statewide Imagery Program. The ISM process and its advantage over the traditional method is provided. |
