Significant results from the HCMM program

The major objectives of the HCMM program for applications in geology, agriculture, water studies, and the effects of climate on metropolitan areas are summarized. Results obtained by Principal Investigators in each of these disciplines are presented, discussed, and supported with figures and tables. In order to compare the types of observations and applications that can be derived from HCMM data with some remote sensing standard or framework for each discipline, the principal results already achieved with the LANDSAT system are included.
