Abstract
Comprehensive, reliable and up-to-date information on natural resources is a prerequisite for undertaking planned development activities. Integrated resources survey conducted by a multidisciplinary team brings out the inter-relationship of the resources and enables their planned and judicious exploitation. Remote sensing techniques are ideally suited for this purpose as the same data base is utilized by various disciplines. Multistage sensing facilitates reconnaissance, semi-detailed and detailed type of information. Surveys conducted in the Idukki district of Kerala and the Bundelkhand region of Uttar Pradesh are illustrated in this paper. These surveys generated thematic maps and statistical data on various resources. Information obtained has been extremely useful for resource managers and decision makers.
