Attitude-referenced radiometer study. Part 2: Primary calibration system

A primary calibration system, PCS, for infrared radiometers has been developed, built, and tested. The system allows radiometers to be calibrated with less than 1 percent error for use in earth coverage horizon measurements, earth resources surveys, and synoptic meteorological measurement. The final design, fabrication and test of the PCS are reported. A detailed description of the PCS construction is presented, along with the results of a complete series of functional tests. Test to verify the source thermal characteristics, collimator reflectance, and output beam characteristics are described and their results presented.

Training and education requirements for the practical application of remote sensing.

Review and analysis of the training and education needs of the Earth Resources Survey (ERS) program both within NASA and outside (i.e., domestic and foreign users). Potential recipients of training are identified, as well as categories of knowledge needs. The relationships between trainee categories and knowledge needs and between trainee categories and training mechanisms are explored. Some consideration is given to problems of training for the effective utilization of remote sensing in developing countries.

The Earth Resources Technology Satellites ERTS-A and -B.

The Earth Resources Technology Satellites, ERTS-A and -B, are a significant part of the NASA Earth Resources Survey Program. A general description of the requirements and implementation of the ERTS system - sensors, spacecraft, operational control, and data processing developed to acquire, process, and distribute multi-spectral images of the earth's surface is presented.

Data handling and analysis for the 1971 corn blight watch experiment

The overall corn blight watch experiment data flow is described and the organization of the LARS/Purdue data center is discussed. Data analysis techniques are discussed in general and the use of statistical multispectral pattern recognition methods for automatic computer analysis of aircraft scanner data is described. Some of the results obtained are discussed and the implications of the experiment on future data communication requirements for earth resource survey systems is discussed.

Remote sensing in Michigan for land resource management

This project to demonstrate the application of earth resource survey technology to current problems in Michigan was undertaken jointly by the Environmental Research Institute of Michigan and Michigan State University. Remote sensing techniques were employed to advantage in providing management information for the Pointe Mouillee State Game Area and preparing an impact assessment in advance of the projected construction of the M-14 freeway from Ann Arbor to Plymouth, Michigan. The project also assisted the state government in its current effort to develop and implement a state-wide land management plan.

Introduction

Management of earth resources requires accurate knowledge of inventories. Developments of improved remote sensing devices and vehicles for their transport, and automatic data processing equipment and techniques are important management tools for an integrated earth resources survey in California.

Coastal Zone and River Delta Studies

Remote sensing techniques are proposed for the development of a California coastal land use classification system which depicts and reflects essential parameters of environmental conditions and quality. Included in the earth resources survey is the Sacramento - San Joaquin River Delta and its complex hydrologic system which links saline waters of the San Francisco Bay with the Central Valley watershed.
