Digital Mobile Sketch Mapping

DMSM Screen Capture — Digital Mobile Sketch Mapping Screen Capture

DMSM is tablet hardware, software, and back end data support processes (ArcGIS Desktop Tools) that allow trained aerial surveyors, in light aircraft, and ground observers to record forest disturbances and their causal agents. DMSM replaces the legacy Digital Aerial Sketch Mapping (DASM) and will greatly enhance the quality and quantity of forest health data while improving safety by leveraging remote sensing to monitor disturbances.
