“…Studies at smaller, pasture-scales, conducted over the past four decades examining how plant community composition affects cattle grazing distribution relied on detailed, ground-based maps [51,52], but with the use of remotely sensed data, mean that investigations can now be extended to a far wider range of conditions and spatial scales. In particular, combining high-resolution, landscape-scale vegetation maps with newly emerging technologies to control livestock movement, such as virtual fencing, will create a new era of opportunity to manage livestock across a far wider range of spatial scales than the pasture sizes currently imposed by existing fencing infrastructure [53].The wall-to-wall coverage offered by remotely sensed data not only allows for more accurate pasture-scale integration, but also allows for the identification of rare but potentially important features or trends within a given area of interest.…”
