Summary:
This technical note describes ground-based image collection for vegetation monitoring, including best practices and equipment details. This technical note also describes image analysis using SamplePoint software, which produces foliar cover measurements with potential accuracy exceeding 90% (Booth et al. 2006). By acquiring and analyzing ground-based images, land managers can monitor more area during a growing season, analyze imagery during the off-season, improve statistical power through larger sample sizes, and maintain permanent records of resources.
