讨论了遥感技术在生物学研究中的应用。许多与人畜共患病分布有关的因素可以远距离测量。作者目前正试图确定如何准确地预测钩虫在中美洲农村社区的流行,从研究土壤和地形因素揭示了航空摄影。还应该有可能通过遥感技术来估计诸如Simulium等病媒的分布。PS
The use of remote sensing techniques in the study of biology is discussed. Many of the factors which relate to the distribution of zoonoses can be measured remotely. The author is currently attempting to determine how accurately the prevalence of hookworm in a rural Central American community can be predicted from a study of edaphic and topographical factors as revealed by aerial photography. It should also be possible to estimate the distribution of vectors such asSimuliumby remote sensing techniques. P.S.G.
