High resolution digital aerial photographs were used to rate the change and to evaluate the woody Prosopis juliflora dynamics in northern UAE, Filayah (untreated) and Khut (treated). A time series of three different dates: 1986, 1996, and 2005 were chosen. Onscreen digitizing of plant communities was conducted using interpretative elements such as shape, tone texture, shadow and final maps were produced with acceptable accuracy. A geodatabase was built for both sites containing layers representing different dates. Statistical analysis was performed to rate the changes of the following four spatial attributes: percent cover, patch density, patch size, and mean patch shape index. GIS Overlay analysis was conducted to visualize plant dynamics and find possible spatial associations.
