The Maggie Creek riparian area sits in northeast Nevada. With monitoring going back to the early seventies, Maggie Creek is a great example of long term data collection. Having rich data both spatially and temporally provides a unique opportunity to look at the effects of management. Open Range Consulting (ORC) has used Earth Sense Technologies (EST) to bring the monitoring of Maggie creek into the 21st century. Using remote sensing ORC accurately mapped current vegetation and used satellite imagery to look at vegetation changes through time.
