Efficiency and Detection Accuracy Using Print and Digital Stereo Aerial Photography for Remotely Mapping Vernal Pools in New England Landscapes

Abstract: Aerial imagery has been used to identify potential vernal pools (PVPs) using stereo photographic prints. Stereo plotter photogrammetry now allows digital aerial images to be viewed in stereo (3-Dimensional) to enhance remote sensing capabilities. We used both print and digital imagery to mapPVPsin10townsinMaine, USA. We used field verification of 771PVPs to explore efficiency and accuracy of the two methodologies and to determine effects of pool size and land cover on accuracy. We compared known pool locations… Show more

“…The adults breed in the pools for a short period each spring or fall and spend the rest of their lives in surrounding forests, often at distances of hundreds of meters from breeding pools (Calhoun and deMaynadier 2008). Vernal pools offer several challenges to effective documentation as they are ephemeral, not widely known or appreciated, and difficult to map remotely (Dibello et al 2016). …”

“…Given that susceptibility to ranavirus infection is influenced by species, individual, and habitat factors, management actions have the potential to affect disease transmission and prevalence in amphibian populations (Wobeser 2002; Grant et al 2018). Historically, loss and degradation of vernal pools have been high due to difficulties in mapping pools and limited protection for smaller pools that lack surface water connections to rivers (DiBello et al 2016). This has resulted in conservation efforts to create new vernal pools to mitigate habitat loss (Calhoun et al 2014).…”
