Aerial Mesurements Operations (AMO) is the remote sensing arm of the Department of Energy (DOE). The purpose of AMO is to provide timely, accurate, and cost-effective remote sensing data on a non-interference basis over DOE facilities located around the country. One of the programs administered by AMO is the Comprehensive Integrated Remote Sensing (CIRS) program, which involves the use of a wide range of data acquisition systems - aerial cameras, multispectral and infrared scanners, and nuclear detectors - to acquire data at DOE sites. The data are then processed, analyzed and interpreted to provide useful information, which is then catalogued into a data base for future use. This report describes some of the data acquisition and analysis capabilities of the Multispectral Remote Sensing Department (MRSD) as they relate to the CIRS program. 3 tables.
