The usefulness of satellite data in forest mapping has been proved time and again all over the world. The potential use of these data in the management of National Parks in India has also been successfully demonstrated in the past. In the present study, temporal images of Landsal Thematic Mapper and IRS-1A LlSS-ll have been used to prepare a detailed forest/vegetation map for planning and management of the Rajaji National Park, Uttar Pradesh, India. IRS-1A LISS-II imagery and temporal data have provided additional information by increasing the accuracy and level of classification. Fifteen vegetation classes and four other land-use classes could be identified and mapped using large scale false colour composites (FCCs). Species composition of each of the forest/ vegetation class has also been described.
