This study quantified the landscape characteristics of eastern white pine and red pine forests in Ontario using a combination of LANDSAT TM imagery and aerial photographs to develop a spatial data base of 275,000 sq km. Analyses on spatial distribution, representativeness, configuration, and fragmentation were conducted in a GIS environment. Results are presented by pine type by both Hills' ecological hierarchy and the administrative hierarchy of the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources.
