OSTI ID:5203920

In an attempt to review the literature of remote sensing from the many hundreds of sources and thousands of documents available, a definition of boundaries was necessary. TAC, reviewing abstracted literature sources (see Information Sources), selects documented data and data gathering techniques which are performed or obtained remotely from space, aircraft or groundbased stations. All of the documentation is related to remote sensing sensors or the remote sensing of the natural resources. Meteorology and extraterrestrial sensing are normally not selected. Sensors are primarily those operating within the 10/sup -8/ to 1 meter wavelength band (ultraviolet through radar). There are exceptions to this when overlapping data is reported, and these have been selected. Beginning January 1977, following the Information Source descriptions are recent releases concerning remote sensing. Included are NASA Tech Briefs, ARAC Industrial Applications Reports, U.S. Navy Technical Reports, U.S. Patent reports, and other technical articles and reports that come to the attention of the TAC staff. Abstracts are included with the citations. An author/keyword index is included.
