This paper describes a project presently underway utilizing remotely sensed data and computer assisted procedures for the location and planning of a new state park. Data was collected on an initial study area of 128,620 acres from which several possible park sites were outlined. After a site was selected, similar procedures were used to outline possible locations for various elements within the park. An iterative design procedure will be used to develop an optimum final design for the park. Included is a detailed discussion of the CAGUP (computer assisted land use planning) package developed to support the planning procedure.
