DESCRIPTORS Computer Graphics; *Documentation; *Policy Formation; *Preservation; United States History IDENTIFIERS Historical Landmarks; *Landscapes; National Park Service ABSTRACT Requested by the U.S. House of Representative's Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs, this Office of Technology Assessment (OTA) paper identifies and examines: (1) the primary problems or issues that face prehistoric and historic landscape preservation; (2) the technologies for addressing these issues; and (3) policy options for putting the technologies to work. The OTA assessment proposes: (1) more consistent terminology and preservation standards' guidelines; (2) an increase in public awareness of the landscapes' value to U.S. history; (3) a federally funded research and develormsnt center; and (4) systematic, long-term maintenance of landscapes. Technologies for the identification and documentation of landscapes range from basic techniques, such as volunteers wielding pencil and paper, to sophisticated computer systems that can assimilate, manipulate, and store geographic information and generate complicated maps of a region. OTA suggests that the National Park Service (NPS), the U.S. government's leader in preservation matters, initiate greater efforts to preserve and create awareness of these landscapes. A 49-item bibliography is included, as well as black and white photographs, tables, and drawings.

U.S. Government Printing Office, July 1987). Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 87-619847 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402-9325 (order form on p. 49) Foreword In recent years, the American public and Congress have become much more aware of the value of historic landscapes as teachers and guides to America's heritage. In- terest in preserving landscapes fof the enjoyment and education of future generations extends well beyond saving historic battlefields and the grounds of historic houses, and now encompasses such varied cultural landscapes as the Pine lands of New Jer- sey, the historic courtyards of Arizona, tobacco farms in Kentucky, and the historic parks and gardens of landscape architects. These and other historic landscapes in every State of the Union reflect the exciting cultural diversity of rural and urban America. As this background paper shows, the implementation of Federal historic preserva tion laws with respect to historic landscapes lags far behind the effort expended on historic buildings and archaeological sites. For example, to date, n, one has invento- ried the many gardens, parks, and other historic landscapes designed by the well-known firms of Frederick Law Olmsted and his associates. Yet these landscapes, which grace most major U.S. cities, stand out as prime examples of American design and cultural values. The desire to rectify this situation has led to congressional consideration of a specific bill, the Olmsted Heritage Landscapes Act of 1987, which is discussed and analyzed in this background paper. Because landscapes are always living, growing, and dying, they are highly vulner- able to environmental changes, from both human and natural agents. This background paper illustrates the importance of continuing to apply certain high leverage, cost- effective technologies, such as remote sensing and computer hardware and software, if this Nation wishes to protect, restore, and preserve important parts of its rich heritage for future generations of Americans. In undertaking this work, OTA sought the contributions of a wide Spectrum of knowledgeable and interested people within Federal and State governments and the private sector. Some provided information and guidance, others reviewed drafts of this background paper. OTA gratefully acknowledges their contributions of time and in- tellectual effort. 141444JOHN H.

  • Field Trips Guide Book for Photographers Revised 2008 a Publication of the Northern Virginia Alliance of Camera Clubs
    Field Trips Guide Book for Photographers Revised 2008 A publication of the Northern Virginia Alliance of Camera Clubs Copyright 2008. All rights reserved. May not be reproduced or copied in any manner whatsoever. 1 Preface This field trips guide book has been written by Dave Carter and Ed Funk of the Northern Virginia Photographic Society, NVPS. Both are experienced and successful field trip organizers. Joseph Miller, NVPS, coordinated the printing and production of this guide book. In our view, field trips can provide an excellent opportunity for camera club members to find new subject matter to photograph, and perhaps even more important, to share with others the love of making pictures. Photography, after all, should be enjoyable. The pleasant experience of an outing together with other photographers in a picturesque setting can be stimulating as well as educational. It is difficullt to consistently arrange successful field trips, particularly if the club's membership is small. We hope this guide book will allow camera club members to become more active and involved in field trip activities. There are four camera clubs that make up the Northern Virginia Alliance of Camera Clubs McLean, Manassas-Warrenton, Northern Virginia and Vienna. All of these clubs are located within 45 minutes or less from each other. It is hoped that each club will be receptive to working together to plan and conduct field trip activities. There is an enormous amount of work to properly arrange and organize many field trips, and we encourage the field trips coordinator at each club to maintain close contact with the coordinators at the other clubs in the Alliance and to invite members of other clubs to join in the field trip.
