This document discusses using remote sensing for mangrove conservation planning. It provides examples of using Landsat satellite imagery to analyze mangrove area and density changes over time in locations like the Philippines and India. Remote sensing techniques like NDVI analysis and image classification are used to measure and monitor mangrove degradation. The document concludes that while remote sensing provides a qualitative assessment, the quality depends on access, time, and funds, and understanding mangroves is key to conserving them.
