Step 1: Understanding the Question:
This question tests knowledge of remote sensing and GIS applications in forestry.
Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Remote sensing and GIS are well-developed for:
- Change in forest cover (A).
- Forest resource estimation and harvesting (B).
- Forest resource protection (C).
However, assessing changes in wildlife population (D) is not well-developed using remote sensing and GIS alone.
It requires field surveys and other techniques.
Thus, the correct answer is changes in wildlife population.
Step 3: Final Answer:
Thus, remote sensing and GIS are NOT developed to assess changes in wildlife population, which corresponds to option (D).
