But by the downsizing of the computers, they can perform the analysis using their personal computer. But the residents in rural areas including farmers will not be familiar with such computer analysis. Therefore the author intends to revive the photographic interpretation for agriculture. In the rural planning, inhabitants including cultivator’s participatory workshop method are effective. Large scale chart or aerial photograph are used at such workshop. If they used multispectral data, they could obtain crop conditions from it.
