Imaging spectrometry for earth remote sensing
Initial results of the novel remote earth sensing technique of imaging spectrometry, which is technically feasible from both spacecraft and aircraft platforms, indicate that the direct identification of surface materials on a picture-element basis is possible through proper sampling of absorption features in the reflectance spectrum. Sensors of this type are able to acquire images simultaneously in 100-200 contiguous spectral bands. Computerized data reduction and storage techniques are available for the large data sets thus generated, and novel analytic techniques are under development to maximize information content extraction.

Quantitative use of multiincidence-angle SAR for geologic mapping
It is proposed that techniques be developed and used for quantitative interpretation of shuttle imaging radar-B (SIR-B) data for lithologic identification and mapping. The use of backscatter versus incidence angle signatures derived from SIR-B images is to be investigated. The use of SIR-B with other sensors for geologic mapping is also to be considered. Anticipated results are discussed in terms of geologic mapping.
