Abstract: The analysis of EO data is generally either pixel- or object-based, but this paper outlines a hybrid approach which maximises the information content of the image at its finest spatial resolution (the pixel) and then analyses this information at the scale of landscape features (objects). This approach is useful where the characteristics within features are important to their assessment and is highly relevant in the current context of habitat legislation which focuses on changes in condition as well as extent. A vital component of the approach is local expert knowledge to improve both the results and the engagement of key user communities in the process. Examples are provided for monitoring a 5 year wetland restoration programme where it was aimed to demonstrate a viable operational workflow.

GIS as a technology has come a long way, from the
early adoption of technical wizardry to the ubiquitous,
if unconscious use by the masses. The creation
of the GISociety is on its way through technological
development, theoretical and empirical scientific
research and inclusion of technology into education
with increasing pedagogical justification.
Defining new dimensions of hard- and software,
brainware and orgware are all needed to further
develop the GISociety.
