I graduated from college with a geography degree, so I am very familiar with how remote sensing works. I'm assuming that is what you are referring to when you mention finding the maryjane plants. However, I didn't know that satellites images were being used to fight marijuana growth.
I have heard about oxycontin becoming a big issue in eastern Kentucky.
