Symposium on Remote Sensing for Resources Development and Environmental Management/Enschede/August 1986 © 1987 Balkema, Rotterdam. ISBN 90 6191 674 7 1065 Working Group 7: Human settlements W.G.Collins Chairman B.C. Forster Co-chairman Papers and posters were presented at four sessions divided into: 1. sensor evaluation for urban application (+ poster session) 2. low-cost information systems for urban planning in developing countries 3. monitoring urban dynamics 4. archaeological uses of remote sensing A fifth session on conclusions and recommendations was also held. The sessions were all well attended, given the selected interest of the Working Group, and numbered approximately 20-30 at each session. The papers presented can be divided into those dealing with the application of traditional airphoto techniques, and those more experimental papers deal ing with spaceborne radar and combined sensor re sponse. A further division could also be noted be tween developed and developing country applications. Questions raised and comments made tended to support the need for rapid and cost effective systems for monitoring urban areas, and the need for greater training facilities in developing countries. The recommendations can be summarized as follows: 1. That greater research activity should be directed to the optimum use of combined multilevel datasets for human settlement analysis. 2. That reports on practical applications of remote sensing to human settlement analysis in developing countries be systematically collected and widely distributed. 3. That adequate resources be made available to de veloping countries to organise and manage suitable training programmes and develop relevant teaching materials and participate in international scien tific meetings and information exchanges. 4. That ISPRS Commission VII promote the development of thematic map accuracy standards. 5. That Working Group IV and Working Group VII com bine their efforts to study the conflicts between agricultural and urban land uses. 6. That military authorities be urged to lift re strictions on the availability and publication of aerial photography. 7. That support is given to the careful preservation of aerial photographs for historical studies. 8. That educational efforts be expanded to archae ologists and other resource scientists to apply re mote sensing for cultural heritage preservation. 9. That collaboration between Working Groups in areas of common interest should be encouraged.
