Latest results from the earth resources programThe characteristics of optical measurements taken by the return-beam vidicon and multispectral scanner systems on the ERTS-1 satellite are described together with the interpretation of these observations for purposes of mapping and surveying earth resources over large areas. Each spectral interval covered by the sensors is discussed in terms of the type of features which can be discriminated and related to particular earth resources.
