NERR 2019
The program is out for the NERR 2019 next month in Annapolis.
Sunday, April 7 - Tuesday, April 9, 2019
The National Environment and Recreation Research
Symposium (formerly the Northeastern Recreation Research
Symposium) fosters quality information
exchange between recreation and travel resource managers and
researchers
throughout North America. The forum provides opportunities for
managers from
different agencies, states, and governmental levels to discuss
current issues
and problems in the field. The Symposium also provides
students with the opportunity of presenting their research in a setting
that is both positive and constructive. The Symposium is organized by
the National Environment and Recreation Research Association (NERRA), a
not-for-profit organization dedicated to recreation research.

Stone Walls and LiDAR
I took Bubba-Doo hiking to day and did a little bushwhacking in the Westfield Wildlife Management Area west of Honey Pot Road. It is a nice area to hike and even has some old growth forests on the NW edge near Granville Road.
Anyway, on this visit and others, I photographed an old stone wall. Stone walls are an interesting landscape feature here in New England, and there are estimates of thousands (yes 1,000's) of miles of these walls in the Northeast back country.
I love finding these walls and I am even more excited about the discovery using remote sensing technology with LiDAR. LiDAR stands for light detection and ranging.
So here are some shots of the stone walls in the WMA.
Visiting NOAA LiDAR data viewer you get this air photo and LiDAR image.
Lastly you can see the wall from LiDAR and then a shot on the ground.
Finally, this white rock (you can tell that I am a geologist) was sniffed by Bubba-Doo today.
