The economic value of remote sensing by satellite: An ERTS overview and the value of continuity of service. Volume 2: Source documentThe economic value of an ERS system with a technical capability similar to ERTS, allowing for increased coverage obtained through the use of multiple active satellites in orbit is presented. A detailed breakdown of the benefits achievable from an ERS system is given and a methodology for their estimation is established. The ECON case studies in agriculture, water use, and land cover are described along with the current ERTS system. The cost for a projected ERS system is given.
