Digital image processing system For Landsat 3 Digital image processing system For Landsat 3
The Department of Interior (DOI) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have entered into a joint program to provide a digital image processing system in support of the Landsat 3 mission. NASA will provide the data reception and pre-processing facilities, while the DOI provides the production image processing system that generates film products and computer...

Integrated terrain mapping with digital Landsat images in Queensland, Australia Integrated terrain mapping with digital Landsat images in Queensland, Australia
Mapping with Landsat images usually is done by selecting single types of features, such as soils, vegetation, or rocks, and creating visually interpreted or digitally classified maps of each feature. Individual maps can then be overlaid on or combined with other maps to characterize the terrain. Integrated terrain mapping combines several terrain features into each map unit which, in...

Progress in remote sensing as it applies to missions of Committee for Coordination of Joint Prospecting for Mineral Resources in Asian Offshore Areas Progress in remote sensing as it applies to missions of Committee for Coordination of Joint Prospecting for Mineral Resources in Asian Offshore Areas
The major thrusts of investigations of the use of space data for understanding our Earth continue to focus on the land and near-shore environments. This is expectable; people live on the land, draw most of their resources from the land or near-shore areas, and in these areas environmental degradation or improvement are most clearly observable. An exception to this focus of investigation...

Introduction to monitoring dynamic environmental phenomena of the world using satellite data collection systems, 1978 Introduction to monitoring dynamic environmental phenomena of the world using satellite data collection systems, 1978
The rapid development of satellite technology, especially in the area of radio transmission and imaging systems, makes it possible to monitor dynamic surface phenomena of the Earth in considerable detail. The monitoring systems that have been developed are compatible with standard monitoring systems such as snow, stream, and rain gages; wind, temperature and humidity measuring...

Surveying Antarctica: from dogsled to satellite Surveying Antarctica: from dogsled to satellite
Base maps of Antarctica are needed at scales of 1:250,000 to plot scientific data, yet after 20 years of a major mapping effort, only about 20 percent of the continent has been accurately mapped using aerial photographs and ground surveys. Encompassing nearly 14.3 million square kilometers (5.5 million square miles), Antarctica still presents a formidable mapping task. Except for the...

What is a picture worth? A history of remote sensing What is a picture worth? A history of remote sensing
Remote sensing is the use of electromagnetic energy to measure the physical properties of distant objects. It includes photography and geophysical surveying as well as newer techniques that use other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. The history of remote sensing begins with photography. The origin of other types of remote sensing can be traced to World War II, with the development...

Availability of communication links for transfer of Landsat Data Availability of communication links for transfer of Landsat Data
This document outlines the availability of civil satellite and ground communication links existent within the international community and the USA which have direct applicability in the operational transfer of Landsat data between nations.
A selected bibliography of remote sensing applications to soil science A selected bibliography of remote sensing applications to soil science
The bibliography contains approximately 200 references dealing with the application of remote sensing technology to the identification and analysis of soils. The scientific papers and reports listed describe procedures and methods used in data collection and include specific applications of those data to soil studies. Most citations discuss current work from 1970 to 1978 and all...
