Abstract
The combined use of additive viewing and digital processing of LANDSAT-2 imagery of part of the Pantanal of Brazil has allowed detailed maps of the drainage network to be constructed. The distributions have been made of wet and dry areas, including differentiations of clear water, water containing suspended sediments, and categories of land with differing moisture conditions. Some unconventional use of color filters and MSS band combinations are suggested in order to extract maximum information from the imagery. Density slicing has allowed gray-scale values to be placed on the three categories of land identified. The distribution of the identified categories are verified by comparing the information from the visual classification with the classes isolated by density slicing.
