Forest Insect & Disease Aerial SurveyHow Surveys are Flown:
Due to the nature of aerial surveys, the data on these maps will only provide rough estimates of location, intensity and the resulting trend information for agents detectable from the air. Many of the most destructive diseases are not represented on these maps because the agents are not detectable from aerial surveys. The data presented on these maps should only be used as a partial indicator of insect and disease activity, and should be validated on the ground for actual location and casual agent. Areas show locations where tree mortality or defoliation were apparent from the air. Intensity of damage is variable and not all trees in shaded areas are dead or defoliated.
