ASTER Instrument Design and Science Objectives

The Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER), a multi-spectral imaging radiometer with 14 spectral bands, is a research facility instrument that will be launched in 1998 on NASA's EOS AM-1 platform.

Remote sensing of Italian volcanos

The results of a July 1986 remote sensing campaign of Italian volcanoes are reviewed. The equipment and techniques used to acquire the data are described and the results obtained for Campi Flegrei and Mount Etna are reviewed and evaluated for their usefulness for the study of active and recently active volcanoes.

Recent developments in lithologic mapping using remote sensing data

Major development trends noted in remote sensing scanners are toward greater spatial and spectral resolution, as well as the acquisition of data over a broader portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Attention is presently given to representative samples of the product of two new-generation satellite sensors, the Landsat-4 Thematic Mapper and SPOT, as well as the status of airborne scanner research aimed at the exploration of multispectral data in the thermal IR wavelength region (which encompasses the diagnostic spectral features of silicates and carbonates). Testing is underway for scanners having spectral bands as narrow as 0.01 micron in the visible and near-IR, which will be capable of identifying specific minerals.
