The present volume on remote sensing discusses a system of integrated acquisition procedures with satellite data, photointerpretation and ground measurements of forest structure, Landsat TM image classification with an artificial neural network, and the use of transputers to reduce maximum likelihood classification time. Attention is given to the automated extraction of metadata from remotely sensed satellite imagery, oceanographic analysis with NASA's Seapak software, strategies for coordinating natural resource information management programs, and an integrative approach to research of deforestation under concession management. Topics addressed include semiautomated point and search signature selection, information management challenges of the EOS Data and Information System, an integrating remote sensing/GIS approach for resource assessment in the National Park Service, and the development of land data sets for studies of global climate change.
