Agricultural Application of Remote Sensing: The Potential from Space Platforms

Abstract: Excerpts from the report Introduction: This study intends to identify low-altitude agricultural applications of remote sensing, including those emerging from current research which appear to be technically feasible from space altitudes. Since operational experience with agricultural remote sensing from spacecraft is negligible, the appraisal of technical feasibility must necessarily be based upon the evidence of existing remote sensing capabilities and the experience and judgment of scientists familiar with low-altitude remote sensing capabilities.
