Digital processing techniques for small digital arrays (FLD data set)
The purpose of the Workshop on Luminescence Techniques was threefold: (1) to review the state-of-the-art capabilities of luminescence methods, (2) to consider a variety of concepts for the development of future luminescence sensor systems, and (3) to discuss appropriate research and development strategies for advancing the current state-of-the-art.

Main image file tape description
This Main Image File Tape document defines the data content and file structure of the Main Image File Tape (MIFT) produced by the EROS Data Center (EDC). This document also defines an INQUIRY tape, which is just a subset of the MIFT. The format of the INQUIRY tape is identical to the MIFT except for two records; therefore, with the exception of these two records (described elsewhere in this docume

High throughput Landsat imagery film recorder
The Earth Resources Observation Systems (EROS) Data Center is responsible for processing, archiving, reproducing, and distributing satellite and aircraft remotely-sensed Earth imagery data in both film and digital format. Landsat Multispectral Scanner (MSS) and Return Beam Vidicon (RBV) sensor data alone represents a daily recording requirement of 23 billion pixels on 1000 feet of film. New satell

The role of remote sensing in the Department of Interior
Since its creation in 1849, USDI has faced the challenging mission of being custodian of the Nation's natural resources. USDI is directly responsible for management of 30 % of the United State's land area, including administration of more than 600 million acres of Federal land and 300 million acres of subsurface lands where mineral rights have been retained by the Federal Government.

An assessment of Landsat data acquisition history on identification and area estimation of corn and soybeans
During the past decade, numerous studies have demonstrated the potential of satellite remote sensing for providing accurate and timely crop area information. This study assessed the impact of Landsat data acquisition history on classification and area estimation accuracy of corn and soybeans.Multitemporally registered Landsat MSS data from four acquisitions during the 1978 growing season were used

Introduction to the U.S. Geological Survey's EROS Data Center Sioux Falls, South Dakota
The EROS Data Center is a part of the Earth Resources Observation Systems (EROS) Office of the Department of the Interior and is managed by the U.S. Geological Survey. It is the national clearinghouse for the processing and dissemination of spacecraft- and aircraft-acquired images and photographs and electronic data on the Earth's resources. The Center also trains and assists users in the applicat
