Abstract
Blackbrush acacia and huisache, two troublesome woody legumes on Texas rangelands, could be distinguished on conventional color aerial video imagery. The integration of a global positioning system with the vide o imagery permitted latitude/longitude coordinates of blackbrush acaci a and huisache infestations to be recorded on each image. Global posit ioning system coordinates were entered into a geographic information s ystem to map blackbrush acacia and huisache populations over an extens ive rangeland area.
