Based at the University of California at Davis, CSTARS conducts research devoted to "interpretation of remote sensing imagery, applications of geographic information systems, and landscape modeling of vegetation, hydrology, and climatology." The main contribution of the homepage is the collection of research papers (many with hyperlinks) and reports, ranging across the fields of landscape ecology and remote sensing. A substantial list of CSTARS project summaries/ publications is provided in the Projects and Publications sections. Also at the homepage are descriptions of software used by CSTARS researchers, and Image, Spectral, and Georeferencing tutorials (PNM format, Xv software).
